A obscured moment

Robert Schultz 1964 (California)

Memories hidden behind my eyes
Stories of life I've surmised.
The gift of exist told stories long
Handed to one another
The wait handed on.
I want to give
But have nothing that last
Nothing but words
Learned from the past
To live is to learn
Learn is a must
Be cautious with words
My fraud to my trust.
