Ne'er Do We Sit In Silence

We never take a moment to just stand still and listen.....

As boys, to men turn, 'pon a journey of life
Ne'er do they take a moment to pause
Reflect, 'pon the journey travelled and the one ahead
Ne'er do they sit in silence

As girls, to women turn, 'pon a journey of life
Ne'er do they take a moment to pause
Remember how twas once they were delicate flowers against billowing winds
Ne'er do they sit in silence

As dreams, to reality turn, 'pon a journey of life
Ne'er do we take a moment to pause
To remember, to appreciate, ne'er do we give thanks for what we gain
Alas, we only cry for that which we lost
Ne'er do we sit in silence
