Someone Like You (From, The River Sings On) Poem by Peter S. Quinn

Someone like you,
That comes and then goes;
Telling the old truth,
What everybody knows.
Like you are to me,
With what we shall find;
Big affair together to be,
Love and sayings - combined.

Who will we please,
For we cannot forget;
See further than the tress,
We come to regret.
To make up ones mind,
In each new decision;
Or carry on more blind,
In each turning envision.

Someone that gives,
From what he might hold;
Outgrows enchanting captives,
They trust in blindfold.
Be of nothing too certain,
In each and every affair;
You won't miss the abjection,
That comes with each year.
