Total Recount by Pamela Griffiths

Counting the years as they
have gone by

I need a recount, I need
to know why

Where have they gone? What
happened, and when?

I used to be young and I
had a life then

Lost in confusion, I live
while I can

The total years of life
have a short span

Life can be hurtful, it
can be sad

But I’m so grateful of
what I’ve had

I can’t turn back the
hands of time

The life I have lived at
least it was mine

I’m sorry that I never
made the grade

So into the background I
gently fade

The years they flashed by,
they went so fast

This was my life, and now
it’s my past

Nothing can stop time from
ticking away

This is my life what more
can I say.

I do not regret anything
that I’ve done

Through some sadness there
was also fun

Too many heartaches and
too many tears

I need a total recount of
my living years
