Perspective

So many miles behind me

Spent traveling on this road

So many lost along the way

Who could not bear the load

Sidelined by some detours

Lonely, cold and lost

A prisoner of my regrets

Surveying what it cost

The price for all those feelings

Paid with all those tears

All the things I thought had mattered

Were victims of the years

Ten years becomes twenty

As times just slips away

Looking for some answers

Or just a place to stay

A place beyond this empty void

Far from the pain and strife

Where I can see things clearly

And make sense of this life
