Greatest Love Story Ever Told
Today when I became the latest version of me
A lifetime of lived moments stared back to see
All that I’ve done and everywhere I’d gone fades
Becomes a memory lived that will not invade
My nightmares and dreams where everything seems
To be the way that it is before beginning means
The end for some, others count life’s moments
Beyond experiences lived and seen that documents
The days that pass and make up our lives
Punching chaos once it arrives and gives
A chance to become better than yesterday’s version
And if not, not everyone’s life’s burdens will bestow
A lifetime of bad memories...
Tomorrow is not promised and yesterday has passed
Today is making moments to share that someday cast
The single events making up your day
Voicing yourself simply no other way
Than as loud as can be when no one can see
The troubles that have come and said hi to me
Writing off the past each lesson I’d learned
Feel the pain I’d just hoped today turned
Better that days past with tomorrow still to come
Alarming moments with volume that for some
Will awaken even the soundest of sleepers
So before I attempt tonight’s dreaming
I give thanks to another day lived yet seemingly familiar.
It’s all good again with each part of my life
Turning all cylinders together me n' future wife
Have created a way in which every day
Our love continues to grow and someday may
Be the greatest love story ever told...
