Sometimes we wait a lifetime

To express that inner most fear

Sometimes we wait a lifetime

To show love to one so dear

Gone a place for recognition

Of things we long to hear

Sometimes we wait a lifetime

When all we want is right here

I woke up screaming

In a place that could

Not be

Childhood imagination

Running off with the

Likes of me

Lost and confused in a

Time that was not mine

Fear and consideration

For things not far behind

I woke up screaming

With a voice that was not

Mine

Emotions and feelings

Proving ever so hard to

Define

Displaced and abandoned

As if sentenced for some

Crime

A world and peoples

None of whom were mine

I woke up screaming

Knowing this to be true

Left all lone was the me

Without the you

It only takes one action

To clear my distant mind

But unable to do this or

Another way to find

Rejected family and loyal

Blood line

I look into your eyes

And my ancestors I do not

Find

Lost generations is what I

See and define

Is our spirituality dead after

Me

I don't know you but you so

Often call me dad

I see your inclination and

My heart is oh so sad

Caught in this worldly confusion

And its gleaming material dreams

I feel I hear your soul as it

Screams even louder no longer

Just a moan

It only takes one action

To clear my distant mind

But unlike so many

I don't want to be unkind

I sit I sit I sit and wait

No longer concerned

With the minds mistakes

Paths have been chosen

Not with individual concern

Motivated by the soul

And the body how it does

Yearn

New challenges awaken

For me to endure

New challenges

New challenges

New challenges for sure

Not sure of directions

Or where actions will

Dictate

If only done the once

Can this truly be a mistake

I sit I sit I sit and wait

For you tell me do tell me

Is this something I should do

Mind now awoken with

Challenges at hand

I do I do I do

Make my stand

Up and down the

Merry-go-round is

How life often goes

It seems not sure to

Hop skip or sprint off

Down that twisty road

Take you chances at

The cross-roads endure

Corners as some speed

Up and down the

Merry-go-round we go

Is yours salvation or sustained

For just pure greed

I look back in wonder

At this thing they call

My age

I observe and ponder

This life so oft a stage

Many a show has been

And many of the stars

Have shone

But sure of what has

Left us is less than that

To come

Lean back take solace

And put away that gun

Moved are individual mountains

With the passing of each

Sun

Move over step aside and

Give the children a chance

To run

Come back form full circle

For the best is yet to come

Gaining inspiration it's

Part of what I do

Moving meeting with

Others being inspired too

Doing those things I've known

Which have lightened up my

Soul

To care to love and from

True friends never depart

Or roam

Blessed are the children

For the pure love that they

Do bring

Hallowed are the parents

That give more than the bed

Upon which they do sleep in

How that distant thunder

Has now become a deafening

Roar

Once so far in the distance

Has suddenly washed ashore

How that distant thunder

No longer seems a friend

Now encroaches upon our

Lives

This thing from which we

Defend

How that distant thunder

Yesterday was in our dreams

Now just pure reality and

Drowning out our screams

Time has come full circle

Hate has turned to love

You once known as hand

Is now the fitting glove

Gone a ways are the things

We used to do and say

Gone is the past for the

Future come upon us

Today

Time has come full circle

Oh the past it did so loose

Now comes the point where

You and I must choose

Lost lost in a place

That seems to have

No end

Lost lost in a place

With no wall upon

Which to defend

Realization now has come

To a static end

There's no one like

You

So who is now your

Friend

Analyzation of those

Things that we have

Always said

Revised concerns that

Others thought were

Somehow long gone dead

Lost lost in a cause some

Say no longer known

Some would say they

Do not remember while

Others that they have grown

Some were made to follow

While others could only fall

Distant distracted are a few

Who could do no more than

Call

Lost lost are we oh we

One and all
