Time and Tide

I'd heard that she had fallen
And I really meant to see her
But the days kept passing, fleeing
And demands kept pushing, pressing
And I couldn't find the time
So I never went by

I just read in the paper
That while I was spinning, rushing
In my crazy circles
On my whirl-a-gig ride,
There were things she had to do
and she couldn't wait for me
So she went ahead without me
And Died.

I like this style...your style....you are a free thinker I think!!

So sad

Illusion...what we see and what we do...it's all up to you.
