Generational Song
1990-2000</p>













Goodbye......</p>
If pain could just mean sorrow</br>
And sorrow , loss</br>
If only loss could be a permanence,</br>
Then pain will not be temporary.</p>

Alas , for we gasp for something better</br>
When we let go, the tightly held</br>
And the pain of loss is kindled</br>
At least by the hope</br>
Of a free tomorrow....</p>

The worth of what you've got</br>
Can it ever rival the yet- gotten?</br>
Our journey here , must be devoid</br>
Of eternal entanglement</br>
Least we debar greater things.</p>














We sing of sadness</br>
At the remembrance of happy days forgone,</br>
At the loss of good things,</br>
At the regrets of things left undone,</br>
Only if we know</br>
It prepares us for the greater flight.</p>

I am pained at this parting</br>
For there won't be a chance again</br>
To do what my dreams command</br>
I must take it this way</br>
For this will surely come back</br>
Albeit in another form</br>
Making me better prepared.</p><a href="http://angelfire.com/oh4/forme">Back to My Homepage</a>
