Repetition ~ Tuesday, 20 February 2018

Is it too late to start

over again my friend

is it too late to start

Never will I travel

never will I return

never will I begin

Virtue comes with conscience

conscience comes with vision

vision comes with foresight

Is it too late to see

the stars in the deep blue

is it too late to see

Time asks no one to wait

but death asks us to sleep

time asks no one to wait

Ask not when time will end

neither bang nor whimper

ask not when time will end

Terror hides in the past

within the mist and fog

terror hides in the past

Is it too late to ask

for time to heal my wounds

is it too late to ask

Only death knows the end

who what where when why how

only death knows the end

Never will I forget

never will I forgive

never will I forget

Tell me when I can start

to let go of the past

tell me when I can start

Only if I forgive

will I learn to forget

only if I forgive

Vision acts as conscience

conscience acts as witness

witness acts as hindsight

Only after my death

will time ask me to wait

only after my death

Yes sir no sir yes sir

my days make me subject

yes sir no sir yes sir

Ask me not when the end

begins for each of us

ask me not when the end

Grief and sorrow follow

my days until the end

grief and sorrow follow

Enter into the clouds

before I see the stars

enter into the clouds
