Sorrow Infinite To Soon
Dean 1974 (USA)
I felt despair
I have died
Give anything of me away
Not to the fortunate
But to the less fortunate
If you cry I am sorry
As crying for me is a waste
Time makes emotions hard and non-existent
Cry for no one as they have not lived as you have
As life is an individual perspective not a group one
Life is a per user one
When you need someone look to yourself as you are the only one to trust
Give only what you can give
Do not give to much because you will not receive it in return
I will leave you something
a warning and a ideal
Live your life without others first
Then if you can add others to your circle
As others will not add you to theirs
Without something in return
If you cannot give me a way out
Then give yourself a way out
Live life without me
Continue on and
Never look back
Forget me and leave that in the past
Move forward without the burden of those that came before you
as we are dead
Do not remember me and make cautious new conntections
with the knowledge that they will let you down
The physical is the physical and it is fleeting
Love, Family is a lie
It will only bring you pain
So do what you can for family
But do not do more then you can bear
As family will betray you
and blood is not thicker that water
Remember letting go of those that came before you is ok
Because finally you have to be you without past burdens
That were not caused by you.
