BEYOND

by Remedios Dorio

 

You’re sitting on a rocking chair,

Silently and alone,

You look at the sunset,

Until it was there no more.

 

The sound of night began,

Sad music to your heart and mind,

The melody it has carried you,

In a deep thoughts, deep, deep beyond.

 

Beyond was yesterday,

The time of youth and strength,

When life was liked a sun arising,

Bright and have the joy of hopes and dreams.

 

Dreams done, you’re satisfied,

Your success, many jubilated,

Glory of beyond so far away,

You’re frozen fast at the end alone.
