If I Could See
I could not see how lonely
my journey would be.
Dreams that I had,
each slowly falling away.
I said I would not be like my father,
I said that when I finally find someone
it would be forever.
I did not foresee
how long and lonely the journey would be.
Should I have jumped around
and taken Love for granted?
No, that is something I could not
have done and still could not do.
Little did I know
how lonely my journey would be.
Dreams of going to the stars,
dreams that have died.
Dreams of easing the suffering in the world,
dreams that have faded.
Dreams of raising my own children in Love,
dreams that are dying.
Dreams of having a Loved one,
someone to walk on lifes path.
Dreams that I will not let go,
though I may never realize.
If I could see how lonely my journey would be,
would I have walked a different path?
