Not Me...... I Said
So.
Who can say when....
Aspirations, first entered .....my head.
Or when, the dreams...... dried up.
When that moment , in which
I became, a part .......of reality.
Or exactly, when ...... I discovered .
Alcohol, served, no purpose.
If you'd drank too much..... A failing.
Failing, to help me, sleep.
Failing, to halt the pain.
No longer, causing me, to forget.
I don't sing, anymore.
And, I never really,..... danced.
Though my heart, still holds....
The forgotten dreams of, love, of....
The tenderness, of lost romance !
It may be, I'm done
I've, served my use.
My time....... it's said.
Has come !
Though none told me !
And .....
if they did
I didn't hear them.....
