Doing Well
June 20th 2010 00:19
I'm really doing well, you know,
Now that I'm on the mend
From all that bloody worry
That never seems to end
Did I get the rhythm right?
Does the rhyme seem fake?
Or am I just imagining
Another damn mistake?
I'll never know until it's done,
Written neatly on the page,
And readers come and comment
On the ramblings of old age.
But I've been there and done that,
More times than I dare tell,
And sometimes the consequences
Really hurt like bloody hell.
Therefore, I made some changes
To the way I view all things,
About who's doing what for me;
Or who's just pulling strings.
So I weigh it all carefully
And when I'm really on a roll
I write down what I want to say,
Cause it's me, who's in control.
You may not even like my work,
That's fine, the choice is yours,
I will write to suit my dreams
With no strange metaphors.
Mine has been a simple life
I'm an ordin'ry sort of man
Survived my share of problems
Just like everybody can.
I am now an older man
My time is running out
I'll remember all the happy times,
The things I laughed about.
I can't solve your problems,
Nor mend your broken heart
I can only say, be positive,
That's the place to start.
