    In Common

    In Common

     

    We don't know...

    we are different,

    we are the same...

    Going thru life,

    feeling life's pains...

    what we have in common,

    different in every way,

    things we face...

    new challenges everyday,

    We live...

    We love...

    we do it different...

    we do it the same...

    The person we are now,

    will never be again...

    decisions made...

    can never be changed

    memories we make...

    we live with everyday

    So many times...

    memories in our mind,

    living in the past...

    dreams that didn't last...

    we let memories,

    take over our dreams...

    Who really knows,

    no one can see...

    we are different,

    we are the same...

    Who we are now,

    living in this day...

    Memories to make,

    dreams to take...

    When the day is gone,

    decisions made...

    right or wrong...

    can't be changed...

    the person we are now,

    will never be again...

    We are different...

    we are the same...

    living and loving...

    trying to get by...

    With so much in common,

    ...we are so different,

    so much the same...

    memories of the past,

    dreams that didn't last...

    We face each new day,

    on our own...

    different but the same,

    we face each new day,

    struggle thru it...

    in our own unique way....

    Thanks Tempy, good to hear from ya...

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
