Silent Gaze

I see you through my vacant eyes, my mind still works you don’t
realise.
I’m just the old man on the bed  with strange thoughts running around my head, and so very soon I will go  but befored that my friend you need to know .

I’ve lived I’ve loved I’ve laughed I’ve cried, iI’ve stole  I’ve gave I’ve  failed I’ve  tried.

Wild nights beneath
 a watchful moon, that end so  late or stop too soon . my table cracked along white lines, my mind in space so many times

I’ve lived I’ve loved I’ve laughed I’ve cried, I’ve stole I’ve gave I failed I tried.

I never thought  that I’d be here looking  at you over there, I was once there  in your place , looking at the old man with his vacant face.

So live love laugh and cry , steal and give fail and try, and remember this for this is true , one day  my friend this will be you.
