(889)▪︎[ Surgery? Yes Please … 10•22•2020 ]

[ It Happened One Morning With Some Pain In
My Neck ]
[ As The Days Went By & The Pain Got Worse ]
[ I Started Wondering If This Was Something That Maybe
I Should Have A Doctor Check ]

[ The Pain Starts @ The Base Of My Head ]
[ & Radiates Down My Right Side ]
[ It All Started One Morning When I Got Out Of Bed ]

[ I Could Turn My Head To The Left & There Was
Very Little Pain ]
[ When I Turned To The Right ]
[ The Pain Is Insane ]

[ I Need To Have It Checked & See What A Doctor Has
To Say ]
[ I Wish This Appointment Was Done Yesterday ]

[ Maybe There Is Another Surgery On The Horizon ]
[ Let Me Go Through It ]
[ So My Life Can Go On ]

[ & Live More Of My Life Possibly Pain Free ]
[ I Just Want The Chance To See ]
[ If A Major Spinal Surgery Will Help Me ]

[ Surgery Would Be The Choice That I Would Choose ]
[ Because With As Much Pain That I Am In ]
[ I Have Nothing To Lose ]

(333)▪︎[ So Much Pain … 4•22•2021 ]

[ There Is So Much Pain Busting @ The Seams In Your Heart ]
[ When Another Dart Is Thrown ]
[ It Continues To Tear You Apart ]

[ It May Be A Word ]
[ That You Heard ]

[ Or An Action That Was Done ]
[ But You Found Out A Long Time Ago ]
[ That Hurtful Words Are Things That You Cannot Out Run ]

[ They Find You By Seeking You Out ]
[ It Could Be A Whisper ]
[ Or It Could Be A Shout ]

[ The Whispered Hurtful Words Do Not Draw A Crowd ]
[ But, What Always Does ]
[ Are The Ones That Are Said Out Loud ]

[ Those Are The Ones That Always Draws Others Attention ]
[ & Because It Does ]
[ There Are Higher Levels Of Contention ]

[ Sometimes Hurtful Words Are Said Because Someone
     Lied ]
[ When Hurtful Words Are Said ]
[ You Want To Run & Hide ]

[ Not In A Playful Way Of Another Game Of Hide -n- Seek ]
[ These Words Can Create Such Big Problems ]
[ It Could Cause Two People To Not Want To Speak ]

[ To Each Other ]
[ Like To Your Father ]
[ Like With Your Mother ]

[ That Has Happend So Many Times In Your Past ]
[ Their Grudges Were Created To Last ]

[ You Were Written Off By Both Your Dad & Mom ]
[ @ One Time You Were Dealing With Don ]
[ Then You Had To Deal With Barbara’s Bomb ]

[ Through The Whole Accusatory Conversation You Had
     With Barbara You Remained Respectful ]
[ You Did Not Need To Be ]
[ You Did Not Have To Be ]
[ So You Were Careful ]
[ Because You Were Expected To Be ]
[ Because You Were Raised To Be ]

[ You Had So Many Occasions Where You Could Have Laughed
     It Off ]
[ & You Had Just As Many Times Where You Could Have Said
     ( FUCK YOU BARBARA ) In A Fake Cough ]

[ One Problem Is That You Don’t Go Against How You Were
     Raised ]
[ This Was The Under The Same Roof Where You Craved ]
[ To Be Praised ]

[ But It Never Came ]
[ That Is Why Mom & Dad Were Never Looked @ The Same ]
[ That Is Why ( MOM ) & ( DAD ) Were No Longer Their
     Names ]

(341)▪︎[ Yes, But … 4•5•2020 ]

[ When Can You Tell When It’s Time To Let Go? ]
[ Is It That Little Voice In The Back Of Your Head ]
[ That Lets You Know? ]

[ Can It Be The Signs On The Wall ]
[ That Can Be Seen By All? ]

[ Except By You ]
[ Why Didn’t You See That Clue? ]

[ If You Can’t See, Sense, Or Feel Them ]
[ That Becomes A Problem ]

[ Often Times You Have No Idea What’s Going On ]
[ When During A Day Of Running Errands ]
[ They’ve Been Gone ]
[ For So Long ]

[ Do You Ever Feel Sick ]
[ & Feel A Panic ]
[ When You Know ]
[ It’s Not Because Of Traffic? ]

[ When Does That Little Voice ]
[ Stop Being Just Noise? ]

[ When You Start To Sense ]
[ That Things Are Not Adding Up ]
[ & That Makes You Tense ]

[ What Do You Do ]
[ When You Feel ]
[ That Once Again ]
[ They Are Not Just Only Loving You? ]

[ With All Of Those ( YES, BUT … ) ]
[ Tearing A Two Feet Wide Hole ]
[ In Your Gut ]

[ You Just Want To Shout ]
[ ( HOW IS THIS GOING TO PLAY OUT? ) ]
[ Because Now, You Are Having Doubts ]

[ About The Loyalty ]
[ & Their Take On Monogamy ]

[ How Do They Define That Task? ]
[ Are You Afraid To Ask? ]

[ Yes, But … ]
[ Yes But, What? ]

(331)▪︎[ Goodbye Song … 4•1•2020 ].

[ These Last Three Days Have Been Some Of The Hardest
Days I Have Ever Had ]
[ They Didn’t Even Start Out Good ]
[ They Just Went Straight To Bad ]

[ I’ve Never Felt Like I Was Stuck On An Island Like I Do Now ]
[ I’m Trying To Get Off ]
[ But I Don’t Know Which Way Or How ]

[ I’ve Never Felt So Alone Because Of What You Had Said ]
[ Now Your Unbelievable Words ]
[ Continue To Ping Pong Around In My Head ]
[ If It Weren’t For The Sound Of The Birds ]
[ I’d Think That I Was Dead ]

[ This Last Year Things Have Stabbed Me So Many Times In
The Heart ]
[ If I’d Ever Want To Rebuild ]
[ I Literally Would Not Know Where To Start ]
[ Do I Have To Admit ]
[ That We’ve Grown Too Far Apart ]

[ @ This Juncture In Our Marriage I Never Thought That We Would Need Skyrockets ]
[ Or Bottlerockets ]

[ To Keep Us Going ]
[ But When You Look In My Direction ]
[ You Are No Longer Glowing ]

[ I Used To Get A Sparkle In Your Eye ]
[ When Did That Die? ]
[ It’s Like You Don’t Even Want To Try ]
[ To Still Be In Love With This Guy ]

[ I Can No Longer Get You To Laugh Or Smile ]
[ I No Longer Know How To Turn Your Sexual Dial ]

[ You Really Summed It Up When You Said That I’ve Really
Aged These Last Couple Of Years ]
[ Deep Down Inside ]
[ That Caused Alot Of Tears ]

[ It Looks Like I’ll Literally Have To Face That One
Comment Head On ]
[ I Guess My Youthful Looks Are Long Gone ]
