That Place

Do I see what wasn't there
As I wander in this mind
To a place in peace I shared
With loved ones caring, kind

Can I remember all in truth
Must I see too, the forlorn
Do I add an untrue touch
To that place where I was born

Years seem to dim and fog the past
A curtain drawn across all time
Fading out a hurtful moment
Healing hearts, both yours and mine

I can't go back to mend or change
So recall the good, untorn
And know I left a piece of heart
In that place where I was born

I can't return nor would I want
To rearrange or calm a storm
I'm thankful for the music there
In that place where I was born
