What Is Life All About
What is life all about, I hear you shout, being not
one to doubt or let your feelings run around,
wondering if things should be sound. To me,
that can only be. If there could be you and me
and taking time out to hear one count the days
that would be running out – would be feeling
short, but all you have to worry about is
being caught.
Won’t Tell A Lie
I won't tell you a lie, but I hated to say good- bye. But what choice did I have? Very little as it happens. Just want to be by myself and do the things I want to do, with little help from anyone or you - just to wander around and feel sound and so … Continue reading Won’t Tell A Lie
Leave me Alone
People won't leave me alone. Is it a crime just wanting to stay at home? You tell me. I don't need lots of friends. Do I look sad and lonely? So then, leave me be. I like staying at home And, yes, just me. If I want company, I'll open my door, and if not, … Continue reading Leave me Alone
Free To Walk Away

Did It Have To Rain
Did it have to rain? Why couldn't the sun shine to make it feel fine? Why did I have to get caught in a downfall? I suppose because it wasn't my call So I ran for shelter, even passed an helter-skelter, Then I heard loud bangs of thunder, making me wonder. Then lightning striked making … Continue reading Did It Have To Rain
Things Are Never What They Seem
Things are never what they seem, not to me anyway. Never hope to get what I want - just need to walk away, but maybe come back some other day - some other day when the sun may shine and change my luck for all time. But it's easier than it sounds. But things do … Continue reading Things Are Never What They Seem
We Are Leaving Today
We are leaving today - to get away from this life, full of chaos and strife, but where to? We didn't plan, but we are off to see the man - the one who knows, the one who shows. He lives his life as a recluse and never wants to be let loose, so he … Continue reading We Are Leaving Today
Another Beautiful Day
Another beautiful day, where I can say, hey, Time to get out of bed to see the sun so red, making me feel like going to the park. What a lark. Seeing the children play and eat ice Cream all day. How it feels great to be Alive and seeing all the children thrive. And … Continue reading Another Beautiful Day
Was The Party Over?
Was the party over? Was life like a four–leaf clover?
Would the fun end, or would everyone be driven
Around the bend? Only time would tell, or maybe
Everyone would be sent to hell. But whatever, it
Was time to tell the truth about the party that was never
Going to end and it was going to be the latest trend
And everybody would have fun, except the man with
The gun. Was it going to fire? Was this man really for
Hire? No one would really know if the party would end
And it was never going to be a trend. And yes, it
Would drive everyone around the bend.
