I woke up this morning feeling raw and wide open
With my mind spiraling into nevermore
Knowing I will step out the door
Into today's unknown

For a passionate encounter
That will put my head on the floor
and my feet on the ceiling
Before going to bed
I sit and think in retrospect
That I do not know what will come to me
but only hope I will be ready
For anyone that comes my way
and what they might do or say
So that when the time is right I'm ready to play
