Restless Dreams

Restless dreams, I toss and turn
My soul's on fire, my heart does yearn
For the times in life, when things were calm
And all life's answers were in my palm

So much I knew when I was young
The answers to all was on my tongue
About friends and family and what I had
About life and love and happy and sad

Time changes all of that I'm sure
For what ails me there is no cure
I'm nearing the end of a long rough road
I hope I'm able to carry the load

The day's begun, I'll start anew
I've set my plans that life will skew
It's been a ride and sometimes fun
But through it all I'll continue to run

And trod and fight and kick and scream
And never ever lose my dream
Of peace and joy and hope and love
And hope I've contributed to all above

If tomorrow don't come and it ends today
It's been interesting I have to say
So go in peace and enjoy the best
Of what life offers and to heck with the rest.
