Quietly you lived,
Quietly you bore;
Quietly you made,
Quietly you tore;
Quietly in time,
Quietly you learned;
Quietly with age,
Quietly you burned;
Quietly they lied,
Quietly forswore;
Quietly you must,
Quietly let go.

Soon
Have I become old?
Am I to meet regret?
Have my dreams all been sold?
Is this all I get?
Where has all my faith gone?
Am I finally alone?
After all the pain I’ve borne
I can’t even know you’ll atone?
Is this all I learn
With nothing else left to know?
I cannot even yearn,
Before I must willfully let go?
Life can seek the young –
A new phase of the same moon;
But this song has been sung,
They will all be old soon.
I still can write,
Although in the dark;
Maybe, one last fight
To make some sort of mark.
Hearts Still Care
