Sorrow

Today is filled with sorrow

While also uncertain of tomorrow.

Still looking at the brighter side

Although the sorrow I cannot hide.

I’ll Be Fifty

Twenty years from now seems quite far

But not as far as it was before

Creeping slowly

People ask me

Where I think I’ll be.

Do I worry or should I worry?

That will lead me nowhere

I know for sure I’ll climb that stage

And I will welcome that age,

If given a chance.

As Jason Mraz said, I won’t worry my life away

By then, I’d be happy to have been fifty.

Better Next Time

What tomorrow holds? I will never know
I’ve learned to live in the present
Make the most of today
Learn the lessons and do better the next time

My Troubled Mind

Letting go

Setting myself free

From the chains that I created

Doubts fill my mind

I forget to have faith

 

So now I let things happen

I work on what I should

On what I could

And refuse to over think

I will be troubled no more

Ride The Bike

I worry a lot

It darkens my day and ruins my mood

Dark clouds follow all the time

And I feel I am at my lowest

 

Worrying is an awful thing

My balance is off

And I lose trust

 

Thank goodness for real friends

One’s who let you see the brighter side

One’s who show you the other view

And it can be so spectacular!

 

I worry a lot

But I keep in mind the lesson I learned

Uncertainty breeds fear

But fear has no hold on me now

So, I ride the bike once more

and enjoy the view

New Year, New Challenge

Leave behind the worries

Take with you the lessons

Move forward and move on

But look back and know that whatever challenge comes,

you’ll be able to over come it

Out Of Time

I’m out of time and out of excuses,

Out of breath and full of bruises.

I’m out of luck and of sympathy,

Working on a music without symphony.

Things have gone awry

Making me worry

 

What would you do

If you knew,

Your time is running out?
