A thoughtful poem worth reading
Time takes a toll on the souls of the old
And the young never care
The lights and the frights make you afraid
You wonder with your eyes
Not your senses
You wander with your limbs
Not your voices

If contemplation is needed
Sit by the quay
You promised to ride your bike
Set it free
Not all those who whisper are frail
Not all those who love are loved
Not all those who wander are lost

Silently speaking is never enough
Those who are true
Hold this true to your heart
You may not believe
Or know all the answers
Yet life goes on without ever needing a change of plan
If confidence is a consequence
Let the truth in

No one knows who you are
Just your mind, your soul
There's a difference that's not always clear
Keep in mind that happiness is never far

Ask yourself
Do you mean what you say and
Say what you mean
Perhaps all we need
Are memories to hold
The horizon may be changing
Time is here to stay

The lost and found
Of truths and quotes
Is found when you search for the meaning
