Birds Flew, leaves fell,
And I stood there.
The snow dropped, the candy became stale,
And I stood there.
The lights went up, my friends began to go,
And I stood there.
Fireworks blasted, bringing in the new, from the snow,
And yet I stood there.
The icy white faded to the a pretty, lush green,
And I stood there.
Opportunities passed, things that had to be seen,
And I stood there.
Flowers bloomed, friends had gone,
And I stood there.
Life reopened, birds sang their song,
And I stood there.
The sweltering sun touched the tree's water cool shade,
And I stood there.
I was given choice to be made,
And I stood there.
The warmth of life began to stall,
And I stood there.
The birds flew; the leaves began to fall,
And now...
I lay there.
Other names are etched in gold.
While mine is etched in stone.
My name no one seems to know,
Because I didn't walk.
Because I did not walk.
Because I did not walk!
For the love of god, precious
you need to run.
Etch your name in gold.
And I stood there.
The snow dropped, the candy became stale,
And I stood there.
The lights went up, my friends began to go,
And I stood there.
Fireworks blasted, bringing in the new, from the snow,
And yet I stood there.

And I stood there.
Opportunities passed, things that had to be seen,
And I stood there.

And I stood there.
