JUST A SIMPLE MELODY

 

LIFE IS JUST A SIMPLE MELODY

 

 

Remember that tune

That is life passing by

Life is just a simple Melody

Melancholy

 

Sometimes funny

Often sad

Life is just a simple Melody

Often it`s just a joke

And we`ve been had

 

No that`s not a train

It`s just life passing by

Makes you want to laugh

Instead you cry

 

Can`t forget that tune

You are not alone

Life is just a simple Melody

Song of sins you can`t atone

 

Sit on the curb and whine

The train might whistle past

That was it

Life is gone

We sit here on the curb

And think what might have been

 

She is just a simple Melody

What lingers is not life

All that`s left are just

Fragments of a song

Written with a simple understanding that this is how life is... we must understand and accept the joys and sorrows that come to pass. It is life... many sad moments, but they are there to ensure we acknowledge the good ones too. Enjoy the journey, not the destination... for we all have the same ending here.

Lots of great lines here. You seemed to cap it all up pretty well, I like your unpretentious style.

[WhiteWillow]

Reads like a song, a sweet melody of truth and retrospection. Insightful and poignant.

Love! Memories as fragments of the melody that is life? Brilliant.
