I Sit And Wait

I sit here and wait
Thinking of now and then
My mind begins to wander
To the days of my youth

I remember when things where simple
Rules were made and broken
Toys where simple and fun
Days out where long and sunny

I remember when things where fun
We had parties every week
biscuits and milk with chocolate too.
Hours in the park, hide and seek
Kiss chase and rugby too

I remember those teenage years
Spotty faces ganging legs.
awkward moments, silly ones too
My first kiss and other things too
Leaving school starting work
Money in my pocket the booze too

I remember my partner and kids
Those happy days of fun
Off to the seaside sand and sea
Caravan and tent reminds me of them
Birthdays and anniversary all them too
One to many but what can you do

I remember one  two many
My partner was oh such fun
We had a love beyond compare
Now I wait in utter despair.
