In the Here and Now

Contributed by Archie on Monday, 13th May 2013 @ 02:42:20 PM in AEST
Topic: SongLyrics



I hope
that all my anger now has gone
of the things I thought that was
when I dwelt here long ago

that's why
I waited so long to come back
to make sure I could be strong
in the face of thoughts I had back then

I can not really say I won't feel that way again,
but I think I've grown and have changed my heart since then

the future seems brighter than it has been in the past
I'm thankful for the friends that have walked with me that path

(Chorus)(3 Stanzas)
In the here and now
I'm a different person
and hopefully a different writer
than the shadows have revealed of me

In the here and now
there's a bigger picture
and a bright new future
that is inspiring me

And in this light
I am not alone
there is a faith I can bestow
and there is comfort now for me
In the face of what I see

And so
If you do not see me much
and my words seem to be scarce
that's the way that it should be

For now
I'm pursuing other dreams
and I hope they come to be
just like I hope that you are happy

I do not really know what the future holds
or what time is going to bestow
I have to take this chance for me

And when you take your given chance
may you have a successful path
and faith will reveal hope for thee


In the here and now
I'm a different person
and hopefully a different writer
than the shadows have revealed of me

In the here and now
there's a bigger picture
and a bright new future
that is inspiring me

And in this light
I am not alone
there is a faith I can bestow
and there is comfort now for me
In the face of what I see



Note; For those who remember I had some anger at members of the site because I thought I wasn't getting enough reads. I lost friends because of my attitude. I stopped posting for a while to get perspective on who I am and realised I needed to work on my envy. Now I think I can post again, this time with no goals other than the ones I set for myself to read and write and not jump hurdles for people. There are some very good writers on this site and some very good participants. I think my time off has helped me to be a better one. If any one needs to talk to me about what I have written here feel free to pm me.

Thanks
Archie

It's always good to be acknowledged, but firstly we should write for ourselves. If we are then read, it is for that which we want to say, not for attempting to please the reader.
It would appear that you have many hundreds of reads, and that tells me your writing is much appreciated.

This is an apology poem. I hope people understand it that way. I know who I am now and thanks for reading my poems.
