Your feather, my dream
Both found our way to the past
To wonderful days
As that feather touched you
...

Up and down goes my heart
My mixed emotions follow
It seems no matter what I do
Still one bigger pill to swallow!
...

Arrived into this world on a Wednesday
Somewhere between night and morn’
Smaller than her first
Brown curls just like her mother’s
...

If tears could put a fire out
How many lives would we have spared?
Running, screaming, lost in confusion
Desperation everywhere
...

Days of noise and laughter
Smoky filled dens
Beers and music
Stories and gossip
...

Ash on his boots
No more luster, no more shine
Her face at a window
Takes him to another time
...

Like a thief in the night
Evil planned its attack
Against me
Betrayal!
...

You and I had been planted
We were the seeds
We became her girls
You came first, ahead of me
...

Late into the night
I can hear the tears
I can feel his pain
I share in his fears
...

Bubbles of ove float in her glass
She knows he loves her, no need to say
She feels it's how he sees her
Love can make or break a heart
...

Run my fingers through her hair
Mocha brown and white
Melts me with deep chocolate eyes
She’ll sleep with me tonight
...

Rejoice, Rejoice!
His word is contagious
From the old, to the new
We still hear the message
...

A girl with a heart upon her sleeve
Yes, she was young
Yes, she was naive
Accepting less
...

He calls me names
He criticizes
Runs me down
But justifies it
...
