Wasted Words

Play to me the sound of the tide
The sound of peace I so long to hear
Like a 12 string instrumental solo
That whispers beauty in my ear

Sing to me the lullaby of time
Take me backwards to carefree days
Sing to me the songs we used to shout
While we were wishing our lives away

Write to me, the poem that I used to know
That made feel good about myself
Take the notes, make the magic appear
Make the whispers in my ear

Some days I look back and wonder what happened
Where did time go, am I moving to slow
I seem to have wasted all my time
Creating nothing but a picture show

Many words I have written
The piles of paper are reaching new heights
Wartorn, between many boxes
Sometimes I read them, incase I can understand why.

I left it so late to realise.....
