Another Chapter

Well hell
I did it again -
I surely hope
this is a win win...

Walking into
a brand new year -
with hope in my eyes
and a new career...

I will look back
and read this through -
praying this was
the right thing to do.

Forgive

The power of forgiveness -
to look beyond oneself...

To know that -

We all fail -
We all fall -
We all let someone down...

Especially ourselves.

It's alright at any time -
to turn it around.

When someone asks forgiveness of me -
I will give it freely...

because I can only hope to be -

forgiven.

Gates

I used to
but I so don't now -
I have to make it
happen somehow...

The glass is
half empty indeed -
I'm pouring it out
to be freed...

Of what I don't
want anymore -
there's my keys
and there's the door.

Apathy

Little crystal ball -
I can't see it at all...

All that I know -
is that I felt it go...

It turned quite numb -
how could I be so dumb...

I wish I saw ahead -
all that is now dead.

Pavement

Go away
you nice dressed man -
I am happy
where I am...

Although it seemed
it might be fun -
Something made me
turn and run...

Why would I
get chained again -
When I have come
so far from then...

Why should I
start all a new -
when I thought
those times were through.

Chilled

If only I could care
for all the love I share...

On the loud banging chime
and complete waste of time...

I didn't even find
what I wanted to be mine...

Yet, there I was -
wasting time just because...

I just keep calm and cool
when dealing with a fool.

The Clock

Oh I do
wish for you -
all your karma
that is due...

As you live
so it shall be -
from that fate
you are not free...

So look up
when it lands -
because it is
on demand...

And you know
that you owe -
all of that
which you sow.
