A covenant of one
A COVENANT OF ONE
When all is said and done
each of us is a covenant of one
into ths world alone we come
alone we go
and who we are we will not know
until we sigh our last
I have no thoughts of the future
no care of what is past
I can only say that I have been
and hope to be again somewhere
something more than I am
more than what others see in me
more than a covenant of one

Hello,
I have no thoughts of the future
no care of what is past
I can only say that I have been
and hope to be again somewhere
something more than I am
more than what others see in me
more than a covenant of one
I wish I could be like you and have no concern for past or future and only live within the day. I worry about the future constantly and find the past is what has shaped me. This piece is very well written.
always, Cat
