Looking Forward

Looking Forward

A Poem by Jeff

It's time to say...Goodbye

To the days of yesteryear


I've spent too many hours

Dreaming of what I had


Reliving old memories

Trying to touch old flames


Wasting what I have today

On what I lost yesterday


I've been running in place

While the sun creeps behind me


I'm in a race against time

That I've been standing still for


Today is the first day

I'll keep looking forward


Today and now forever

I'll leave the past where it lays

I wish you the best, Jeff. Reading your poems since the beginning and following your "soul-searchings" (is it right?) is very moving.

I completely agree with Sarah. I too wish I could write half as well. I loved this work, which makes me want to forget the mistakes, but which I can't
