Where were you
when your family was crying
where were you when your
daughter was growing up
where were you
when your son was crying every night
where were you
when your kids were not all right
where were you
when your daughter had her prom
where were you
when your son was lost and confused
where were you
when your daughter graduated high school
where were you
all those times we needed you
where were you when
our mom had to work two jobs just to support us
where were  you
when our mother was our rock
where were you
when your children were learning life's pain
where were you
when your kids were making choices
where were you
when you were not making any effort to see us
you weren't there
did you even care
we may forgive
but we will never forget

I look out onto the fields that spread for miles
I see the animals of beauty strength and free will
I see their majestic forms and I am breathless
I can stay in this place forever
I can breath them in with every breath
I can see their wild side and the will in their eyes to stay free
I can see their loving side and the way they are with their loved ones
I could watch them graze for eternity
I could try to tame them but I would never forgive myself
For they are the the free spirited Mustang's of the wild

I walk the path
not knowing my destination
I walk the path
not knowing where I am
I walk the path
sometimes happy and sometimes sad
I walk the path
sometimes excited and sometimes angry
I walk the path
making choices
I walk the path
living breathing sharing laughing crying
But most important
I walk the path of life not knowing where I'm heading
and in no rush to get there

I walk alone along the path of nothing
I can’t see you can you see me
I reach for the eternal bliss of hope
I can’t feel you can you feel me
I feel myself reach the edge of no return
I don’t remember you do you remember me
I feel myself falling until there is nothing left
I’m with you are you with me
