Ahead



Ahead

The cloud of melancholy rolls in
Engulfs and shatters with an evil grin
Auld lang syne is making the horizon
In the background I listen to a singing denizen

Is the cause for celebration the future or past?
Clashing emotions within realization is cast
The essence of youth is having no past
So there’s seldom sadness or regret cast

With maturity and life come memories
Poignant moments with happiness transform into valleys
Darkness descends as that cloud rumbles in
Funny how the here and now becomes vital to win

So gird the soul with faith and love
Toughen the mind with reason and hope
I reach optimistic confidence and battle the sadness
I’ll not surrender to craven pointless darkness
