did we leap before we looked
when love gave us the call.
The road ahead may be rocky,
but we say we can persevere.
Again, we begin to wonder
whether our decisions were the right ones
when we made our judgement call.
Then more doubts cloud our mind,
are we going down a road
we’ve gone down once before.
A road that leads to nowhere.
The more we question
the less we do
to turn our life around
and all we do is add more stains
to our sadness stained brow.

in olden times.They came from distant worldsand some simply lost their way.Their remnants lay hidden,locked in vaults away from our day.Their secrets to be revealedby what they called a primitive society.Their voices silencedfor the good of allsome would say,until new travellers arriveto find those who disappearedinto our yesterdays.11 July 2008
from UFOs to ghosts.If the experience is repeatedover and over again.It becomes weird.Everyone will experience lovewith either a human or animal.Something you want in your lifeforever and ever,even passed the graveand that is wonderful.Some of us will engage with bothfrom time to time.We gain from our engagementsbecoming a better person.More open from our experienceswith the…
