Counting The Days

Counting The Days

by Lord R.e. Taylor

So many days have passed

Too many to count

Not that I would want to know

But the thing to remember

The more days behind me

The fewer there are ahead

But I’m not afraid of that last day

Maybe I will spend that day drinking

Or I may find another way to be in trouble

I can be sure of one thing: I will not sit around

I will not be sad or cry

And I will not allow anyone else to feel that either 

I have been here more days than I deserve

So, one more may be one too many

Or it may be one less,

And that may be too few

Who knows and who cares

After all, I might just need the rest
