The Year That Never Was
The Year That Never Was
2020 never happened
It’s a collective dream
Come to haunt the mighty beings
Who in their mind’s eye were the kings
The guilt of the guile
The lament of life
The smile that travelled miles
But couldn’t reach the eye
The way we inhabited empty homes
And finally stood and looked at yore
How all that we wanted never happened
And what we needed was always near
