OF THE PAST


The night is young but here I am,
Writing about the voice within,
For sleep still wouldn't come,
Remembering the past of who I've been.

I know I'm not perfect and had not been good,
For the things I know I did wrong,
For the person who I never have should,
For the change that took so long.

But those days I do not regret,
For it made me who I am now,
For the places and people that I met,
For the promises and those broken vows.

But what I regret is the pain I caused,
To those who I did adore,
For the fight for them I did paused,
For I want to hurt no more.

I hope someday they would understand,
That weaknesses I also have,
For I am but only a man,
Able to hurt, able to love.

Those days were of times of young,
When passions do run high,
Nights of warmth and melodies sung,
Tearful days of painful goodbyes.

But all things change and so am I,
But still I can never forget,
Those memories that will never die,
Until at my life's sunset.

I hope when the past catch up with me,
I will no longer have any fear,
I can face it full of glee,
For still in my heart I still hold them dear.

Almost Midnight


It's almost midnight but still I cannot sleep,
There's so many things on my mind,
There's a lot to do and a lot to keep,
And a lot of memories that I should leave behind.

Days do go by so very fast,
I feel I can't keep up with it,
Wondering how long I can last,
Or should I give up and leave.

The future is unknown and I should wait,
The present should be of my concern,
Maybe I should all leave it with fate,
Before I crash and burn.

Youth will be gone in a little time,
But wisdom will be the prize,
I hope doubt is not a crime,
Because if it is I will never rise.

Maybe I fear too much of things I should not,
But I cannot help but do,
For I know that doors will always shut,
If action will be overdue,

Life as everything is not forever,
But I hope I could leave a mark,
like a calm but strong river,
Like a ray of light in the dark.

But for now all I can do is pray,
That things will be all that good,
And hope to have to smile with each passing day,
And be and do what I should.
