I got an email today
It said an old friend of mine
Had died today
...
I know it sounds dramatic
But to me it was traumatic
It happened when I was out of town
...
To the earth, death is life's tool
But not to a mother, sister or nephew
You think you're strong
...
Is it me or are people down-right picky?
Do I have to spell everything out?
And when I do they take every word literally?
...
Insecurities
Leaping over hurdles
Making sure you’re OK
...
remember when you were a boy
So happy playing your toys
Everyday you'd wake up with a smile
And dress yourself with your own style
...
I'm an actor in a play, pretending to be strong
But worry's to say the words that are wrong
When confronted to speak and have to deal
To not have the answers, is such an ordeal
...
It started as a skinny runt
Got picked on and made fun of
Almost tossed and given up on
Until someone came upon it
...
Let me in
Don‘t shut me out
Let me in
Don't fear in doubt
...
Looking out the window
Looking for your car
Wondering if that's you
Looking from afar
...
