I sit and look out the window
and standing here realise it is late
too late to see the rolling hills yonder
and indeed too late to see all that once was
the years have rolled by
like the rolling hills in fact
the same hills i can no longer behold...
i can no longer hold you
because you've bought the farm
you know, the one with the red barn, and it's miles away

I feel the grievous emotions within this poem. In fact this reminds me of It's Too Late by Carole King- a wonderful soulful singer. May God be your guide in everything,

'The Truth About It' really gets to me. I see it as a special poem -- and I have pictures in my mind: the hills, the farm. I would guess that there's a lot of metaphor here: but it is so sublime that it doesn't really show itself (at least it didn't to me) until the end. Good writing!
