Life


My dearest companion,

 

How do I tell thee

Of my life

 

Time is going too fast

Senior year will not last

Real life is just around the corner

 

I'm not ready

Not prepared for what it brings

I feel unsteady

Therefore I need wings

To keep me in balance

 

How do I tell thee

Of my life,

I don't want to move on

And yet I'm drawn

 

How do I tell thee

Of my journey

 

I don't know what lies ahead

Nor do I know what lies towards the end

My life is a thread

Now I have to fend

 

How do I tell thee

Of what is so precious,

I miss people that I cannot see

I miss my little birds

 

How do I tell thee

Of my life

How do I pour my heart out

 

I can say how I feel

But you can't feel the pain

I may never heal

Completely again

 

How do I tell thee

Of my life
