Several years ago Maybe twenty I don't know Future was ******* in a bow. But those plans fell through The way they sometimes do My path was overgrown with weeds Couldn't follow all my leads But that was then , this is now I think I've found out how, to get through another day even when clouds get in the way. It is friends that cleat my path It's the truth I've done the math Their kindness is all I need To thrive with a newly planted seed.
