Wishful Thinking

Is there a place for myself in world of
ours? Is there a place for a person of
loneliness in a world full of lovers?
I want someone to help me find others
who look at me as a person who can
love and listen to them. I am the man
for someone who is looking for someone
like me. I wish I could find her soon. Some
nights I lay awake and wonder who would come
to my rescue, who would help me find my
way out of the tunnel of despair. "I
see someone in the distant dawn!" I cry.
Is that her? Have my wishes come true? "Fly,
my message, catch her before she gets
away." The long journey has begun. Let's
hope my message arrives safely. She's the
on. I just know it. Will she ever see the
importance of my message? Wait, she turns
around, she sees the message. She now learns
the secret of my deepest depths of my
love and passion. A new figure arrives
and holds her tight. Where is the message? Did
she throw it away? Could she have? I did
see her hands, as they gracefully flowed to
her pockets. I hope she kept it. Now to
find out if it meant anything to her or
if it was just another hope letter for
her collection of many others. I may
just be another guy of already filled day.
The next day I see her alone by the tree
of many childhood memories. She sees me.
She's been crying. "What's wrong?" She reaches to
me. This is the first of many times to
come, that I will be there for her. I know
I can keep the promises I make. I know
I can make her feel wanted and loved too.
All she needs now is someone to be true.
What she has now is someone always hers.

Washboard Blues

My favourite saying of late Is that I wanna cry. The world has been crumbling around The people The state of affairs The disbelief. I say the words Jokingly But there's a piece of me That would kindly accept A tear... Or two. There have been more days Than less That I could use a reset button. I would start it all again, There are times where I regret Everything. If I wanted to live with no regrets I probably could have done more I probably could have said more I should have meant more. Morbidity Mortality Time... All things weighing me down. There's this sudden end It's coming soon Sooner for some Not soon enough for others But it's coming. If I was to go right now Away Gone Left it all behind... I don't want anyone to think of me After the fact. I don't think many will Some might A passing glance Something to do But I'll be gone Somewhere more To where I'm supposed to be. Africa Asia Europe Or Beyond. I haven't quite decided Yet But I will.

Snowy Interval

Our winter is right around the corner And the thought takes me back To when we found ourselves Last time around In the coldest of days. Even in those harshest of elements In the coldest of all the months I couldn't feel the chill Because between your smile and your words They were the best of days. And just like the unpredictable Alberta weather The storms rolled in I tried to stand my ground Withstand the worst of what it could throw Until I found the peace to know the storm was me. The summer months were devastating The air was dry The sun was unrelenting It was a record year But the chill in the empty hole was all I knew. The leaves have been falling awhile The mind wanders when unchecked Smelling the weather changing Has the heart reeling For another one of those great snowy intervals.

Not Yet

I'm trying to resist It shouldn't really happen I don't even know for sure. It's a good thing Not knowing keeps me from falling Too far from too much.
