Poem: 100 Things to do before we die
May 2, 2008 by Simone
I have just completed my list. I like to add in a few sayings or poem. I found this poem in that process (from Poem Hunter).
A 100 things to do before we die
|
Deep in our selves
There is this list
Of all the things
We so far missed
The things we never dared to try
A 100 things to do before we die
On it we find the things not done
All the lost chances
All the fun
Denied avoided and passed by
A 100 things to do before we die
Exotic places far away
We’ll visit them some other day
When there is money
We will fly
A 100 things to do before we die
The face we see in a big crowd
The voice which calls us clear and loud
Another day we will reply
A 100 things to do before we die
The call postponed or never made
The night we left but wish we stayed
The tears we sometimes wish to cry
A 100 things to do before we die
Encounters left in hurried haste
Words still unsaid
Warmth gone to waste
Love taken
Like a passer-by
A 100 things to do before we die
One day we’ll finally make a start
One day we’ll answer our heart
Collect the kiss
Which ratio did deny
A 100 things to do before we die
One day we’ll speak the truth aloud
Unmask ourselves in a big crowd
Never mind the public eye
A 100 things to do before we die
One day we’ll cease to be polite
Will stop to fear another’s spite
And finally refuse to lie
A 100 things to do before we die
The day will come when finally
We’ll read the list
Which makes us see
All the things which we have missed
What could have been if we’d been free
One day we’ll read that secret list
Of all the things we so far missed
The Gods may grant time to apply
The 100 things to do before we die
