sitting on the corner of my desk…a small photo of my love
of a time in the past…in our youth…when desires were foremost
it tells a history all its own…holding dreams that never occurred
a time in the past…a time in the future…a photograph on the desk
it tells tales of youths travels from place to place in time
of lessons learned the hard way…by minds not wanting to admit
at a time when we thought we knew it all…yet we didn’t really
a time in the past…a time in the future…a photograph on the desk
a time when worlds collided…parents and children rebelled
when history made decisions we weren’t ready for…choices left
wars occurred that took our dreams away left us all alone
a time in the past…a time in the future…a photograph on the desk
we were left confused looking for ourselves…searching for answers
we aged as answers appeared…we finally saw the light in the window
it only took a lifetime to hear the answers and see the truth
a time in the past…a time in the future…a photograph on the desk
