WASTED

I don't want to be wasted...
I don't want to waste away my life...
I don't want my life to be wasted...
I don't want to be wasted all my life...
I've been contemplating
D & D...
To cleanse this vehicle that transports me...
From A... To... B...
Float like a butterfly
On the thermals in your mind ...
Dive like a turtle
On the seventh wave of time...
It all ticks around
Sooner than we'll know...
Just try and stick around and see
What it has to show...
As a spark we're born
And the flames of youth rise higher...
If we are fortunate
We'll get to tend our fire...
Don't let your embers die
Allow the air to flow on through...
Keep your eternal flame
Within your windows , shining on to...
The light of the new day
Who knows what it may dawn...
Age is a luxury
Over which we have no control...
Wasteful emotions and actions
May account for nought...
It's about whether your soul has lived
And whether you have been sold or bought...
Every milestone tells a chapter of your (life's) story
Every corner is a verse...
Every dream is a concept or at least another page...
Every moment is a word...
I don't want to be wasted...
I don't want to waste away my life...
I don't want my life to be wasted...
I don't want to be wasted all my life...

Good awareness write

Hi Debs,
Thank you for your words and your welcome... This is a great site!
And yeah you are right... This is a song idea I've written and rewritten for many years now and it never felt right and recently I wrote this kind of stream of consciousness middle section and it feels like it's almost there... Some songs/poems/concepts are a bit like life, you've just got to live it and keep working at it ...
I will be uploading some more poems / songs please look out for them... Equally I look forward to reading through your work...
Many thanks again all the very best!
