Cast Away

Cast away, cast away, cast away all

While dancing to the tune of destiny’s call

Coupled by love and pangs of regret

Still going and going but not there yet

Borrowing time on promises made

Cashing in where our dreams were laid

Never fulfilled-life took its toll

Destroyed the moment reality took hold

Can not see into tomorrow nor face the day

Whatever the reason-we went this way

May not have been right-we just don’t know

Seemed like the path we should surely go

Each step has proven this was not the case

Look at us now-hurry-there’s no time to waste

So cast away, cast away, cast away all!

While dancing to the tune of destiny’s call

  1. Beautiful. 🙂 It’s hard to write poetry that rhymes, mostly because of the cheese factor. But you did a great job. 🙂 The rhythm’s fantastic.

    1. I was old before my time so tradition says to rhyme but my husband is a free-verse writer and I have come to enjoy and write both now. Thank you so much for your comment.
