Every morning when I wake up
I try to picture what we'll be
But every time I try to see you
All I end up with is me
And when I try to keep my head up
Fear whispers softly in my ear
I can't keep everything inside of me
When I'm hardly even here
Are you out there or are you only in my dreams?
You disappear so quickly
My heart is breaking at the seams
Find me, lover, find me
Don't drag your feet now
I'm so tired of going slow
Your name lingers on my tongue
Who are you? I long to know
Hurry before my song is sung
When I try to keep my hopes up
Despair whispers softly in my ear
I can't keep looking for you, lover
When I'm hardly even here
Are you out there or are you only in my dreams?
Find me, lover, find me
You disappear so quickly
My heart is breaking at the seams
I can't keep everything inside of me
When your ghost won't let me be
Are you out there?
Will you find me?
Hurry quick now
My heart is breaking at the seams
I try to picture what we'll be
But every time I try to see you
All I end up with is me
And when I try to keep my head up
Fear whispers softly in my ear
I can't keep everything inside of me
When I'm hardly even here
Are you out there or are you only in my dreams?
You disappear so quickly
My heart is breaking at the seams
Find me, lover, find me
Don't drag your feet now
I'm so tired of going slow
Your name lingers on my tongue
Who are you? I long to know
Hurry before my song is sung
When I try to keep my hopes up
Despair whispers softly in my ear
I can't keep looking for you, lover
When I'm hardly even here
Are you out there or are you only in my dreams?
Find me, lover, find me
You disappear so quickly
My heart is breaking at the seams
I can't keep everything inside of me
When your ghost won't let me be
Are you out there?
Will you find me?
Hurry quick now
My heart is breaking at the seams

Silence
Silence deafens
It screams at me from blank walls so I fill them with photographs
So they’ll seem less empty, and so will I
Silence welcomes
When the world is just too loud and too chaotic and too restless
And all I want in this moment is quiet
Silence echoes
From the depths of the empty beer bottles that line my bedside table
They promised fulfillment or at least escape the night before
Silence lies
It tells me that I am not good enough for a house filled with love
The kind that comes from the heart of a man
Silence comes
The moment I lay my child’s sleepy head to rest and surround her with pillows
So that she may never know

| processing and thinking
You know when you're writing a poem and you don't like what you typed
you can hit the backspace key
and back goes the space until you are satisfied with the outcome
but what is satisfaction when just a moment ago you had something to say
and now that one key has taken it away?
But then suddenly you have something better to type
maybe worded in a better way
and you're so happy as your fingers hit the keys
your thoughts spilling out onto the page like liquid
until you read your new, revised version and the outcome is not what you expected
when the mood is not set correctly
and the expected impact of your words becomes rejected
Not only a

Sad Love.
It is sad
When love doesn't survive
Except in memories and missed opportunities.
Or when it is looked down upon
Just because it is different.
Or when it is given up
In favor of familiarity.

I wrote this for my cousin's country band. He is going to be writing the music for it.
