Regrets litter in my soul as I look back Papers and pens that made my eyes gag This is the road I choose A trail where works and study suffuse This is the life I abuse A desk of overload books and a head with no amuse Should I sell my life to marriage, to money, to fame Or should I work dignified until my hair turns to grey flames I did nothing as my life is reduced I accuse myself of living the harder way Of peeling away my youth when the mind cannot sway I never will be like those on the island of green They were steps ahead before we came to be So life must go on and I would swallow down pain Palming other's sins, sparing no grin. But would it have been better, is it the best way, I work with erased antenna for medals harsh to the taste. My head tells me to move on, But my heart convinces me otherwise.

Mindful Heartaches
Regrets litter in my soul as I look back Papers and pens that made my eyes gag This is the road I choose A trail where works and study suffuse This is the life I abuse A desk of overload books and a head with no amuse Should I sell my life to marriage, to money, to fame Or should I work dignified until my hair turns to grey flames I did nothing as my life is reduced I accuse myself of living the harder way Of peeling away my youth when the mind cannot sway I never will be like those on the island of green They were steps ahead before we came to be So life must go on and I would swallow down pain Palming other's sins, sparing no grin. But would it have been better, is it the best way, I work with erased antenna for medals harsh to the taste. My head tells me to move on, But my heart convinces me otherwise.
