What’s Been Is Past

Pamela Yvette Derry 1953 (San Antonio)



Memories
Clouds filled with dreams
Yesterday is gone
Much to hold on too
Tears, tears, more tears
Falling not few

Mind don’t want to grasp
The loss heart felt
My deepest condolences to me
My soul knows what doesn’t seem real
Realistically is

Heartaches
Starr with gleaming beam
Bullseye
No end to the pain
It seems
What’s been is pass
What’s pass remains
Love never ends
