Pulse
I have tried to keep the sadness at bay
Until I let it in
Like a long lost friend
Like the waves that break
With a healing ache
I let it out again

   
I have trembled like the last leaf on a barren limb
Until the winter wind
Blows me away again
And I tumble down
To December ground
To find I’m not alone

Life is simple just to live 
No questions asked no answers needed
But my restless heart can’t seem to stay
Content for very long
But peace is here in spite of all I do or do not do
Through the changing of the seasons
And the silence is a song
And my face is growing older in the mirror now
Didn’t take so long
How the years have flown
And the dreams that I have clung to
Some have been fulfilled
Turned to memories
Others never will
But I’d rather feel it all than not feel at all
Take the laughter and the crying
And the Living and the Dying
And the dancing and the laying down to rest
Smiling at my lover and my children and my God
I must confess
I have been blessed  2006 David Baroni
