Life's Broken Window
by Walter Jones (Age: 63)
copyright 06-26-2003


Age Rating: 10 to 127

 
Always just a drink away
The shallowness of youth
Takes away man's truth
From screwing up another day

Chances spent in hell
The story that you might
The blood, the fear, the last fight
Do not allow you to tell

Who cares what is right
Engines screaming down the drive
Miracles if any of them still alive
To the drunk in the night

Who was it who said you’d be better off
Well she took the pill
Still she is pregnant not ill
Not born... all of you were just dead

My daughter I held her tight
Against the fears of life
From her I took the knife
Safe until morning light

With what ever I see
I pray for youth
To take, accept truth
In the mirror is me

I truly do understand
For once I was a man
Of only twenty three
