One Day

One Day

I'm twenty-three now

and I still can't understand how;

I have arrived here.

See time chugs forth like a train

And yet right here is where I remain

in the shadows of my past

-everlast.

All I've ever wanted was to be free

yet by an increasing number of degrees

 on every day and in every way-

I slip further and further and further away.

One day, I pray I'll find my way. 

One day I'll find-

these words still ring in my mind,

as I go further astray...

One day. One day. One day.

I pray-  

One day I'll find my way.

Back to You-

(...and not just for a waylay,
but for the long stay.)
