Wisdom

I'm lost in myself for a while
Trying to know what's true
People that I once knew
Now seem like a distant lie

Gone... Now I stand here all alone
The clock, it seems so fast
Far away from the past
I wish I could turn back time

Life has passed me by
It all seems so strange
They follow their dreams and I am
Still just the same

But who knows I have changed
I can not blame my friends
For all the hidden pain
That I have in my heart

She seems so divergent from me
But it was not like this
Long ago, many years
I wanted to kiss her mouth

If I had done that, I'd be now
Happier, could somehow
Everything just work out
Or would she still break my heart

And I don't know why
I still feel this way
It did me such harm and I
Have lived it again

Those unrequited loves
Melancholy just sucks
Just like those days of old
When I left hope behind

I've looked with regret on my past
Was bereft, filled with fears
Unnecessary tears
Since I know it's not the end

I've had a great life
So much more to say
Had lots of good things, and
There's more coming my way

Hell, some bad days arrive
It's not so wrong to cry
If I remember what
I've been crying for

In the end it's fine
People come and go
But memories remain
And that's all I need to know

With wisdom and great strength
Finally face the change
Know that we'll be okay
And that this is just life
