A New Poem
The following poem is both about the passage of time and the passage of life.
As I sat at my desk the other day, my thoughts were on yet another bought of writer’s block. I also thought about how many things I still want to accomplish before I die. It occurred to me that almost all of us probably die with tasks unfinished, or dreams unfulfilled. Thus this poem was born.
As I Fade
As the sun goes down on my story
I have horses unridden,
Another day comes:
Not for him,
Not for her,
Definitely not for me.
The future:
How fast it bleeds
Into the past!
Alone in the dark I will listen.
My tears still glisten
In helpless disgrace.
I will pray
For those who will live
For another day.
