A Poem On Today....

We go through life, days and dazed,
spending time wild and crazed
doling out our precious time
to meaningless precocious rhyme
Seeing others in and out
doing this or that no doubt
Watching as they waste their lives
being unrelenting wives
or grumpy husbands filled with fears
wasting, wasting all their years
not realizing what they've got
not understanding what's their lot
just wasting time in worried thought
wasted money on what they bought
over and over again it is over
trampling down the grass and clover
trod beneath their empty walking
complaints will fill their empty talking
Why does it go on this way
Life so vital felt so gray?
I lost you once, I lost you twice
this thing called life is never nice
but once upon a time it knew
a moment wherein Love was true
I got you once, I got you twice
the third time's the charm, the thrice
and this time I will keep you, Hon
you are my only needed One
and now I see what I should do
living life along side you
Showing Love like 'nere before
finding all that lies in store
for you and I my Lover, Babe..
it' now or never, it's our Today.

A somewhat happier, more hopeful feeling....

stupid is as stupid loves.....!

Very powerful. I was surprised you managed to keep a steady focus and aim on the topic while rhyming every two lines. I find it's harder to stay on track with rhyming structures like this, doesn't give you a lot of elbow room. Good stuff, though.
