The ghost of a song

There was a time
When I wrote what I thought
They way I thought it
The way all ought to be

There was this once that I wrote a song
A song about the wars in my mind
Of the conflicts of time
Of all the thoughts unbidden, but came anyway

There was this once that I wrote a song
A song about love
A song about tenderness
Of all the happiness with which I came away

And there was another once
When I wrote a song to greatness,
And valour
And all the glory that may

But these are all far away from the truth
Coz no one, not me not anyone has written a song
To the mind and what may be…………………..
