[ Love Can Happen @ Anytime ]
[ @ Anywhere ]
[ But Some People Think That It Is A Crime ]

[ All Of A Sudden You Wish You Have The (9) Lives Of A Cat ]
[ Because When You Really Find Love, You Never Want To Die ]

(1318)▪︎[ Don’t Go That Way … 11•14•2019 ]

[ As I Sit Here Brokenhearted ]
[ I Remember The Day Where We Parted ]

[ That Day Was Not A Day Where I Shined ]
[ That Was When I Felt I Was Left Behind ]

[ You Were Going That Way ]
[ But I Didn’t Want To That Day ]

[ I Thought We’d Be Better Off Going There ]
[ But You Never Listened ]
[ Or Cared ]

[ Later That Day I Tried To Call You On Your Phone ]
[ But The Voice That Answered It Was Not Known ]

[ By Me ]
[ I Just Could Not See ]

[ How Things Got So Messed Up ]
[ When I Heard That Man’s Voice ]
[ I Felt Cut ]

[ To Go Outside Of Our Marriage To Get Some Strange ]
[ That Sure Seems Pre-Arranged ]

[ Since You Were So Fast ]
[ To Put Our Future In Your Past ]

[ You Cut Me Out In Nothing Flat ]
[ There’s No Doubt About That ]
[ So Now Where Are @? ]

[ Is There Even Anything To Save? ]
[ That Would Be Where You Would Have To Behave ]

[ If I Get Even The Smallest Feeling Of Doubt ]
[ Then I Will Walk Out ]

~ Ka hopena ~

[ Mahalo E Ka hoa ]
[ A hui hou ]
[ Aloha ]

(246)▪︎[ The Spark … 3•9•2020 ]

[ When The Sun Goes Down & The Moon Comes Out ]
[ What Do You Think About? ]

[ Do You Reminisce About How The Day Went? ]
[ & How You Were Able To Call Your Partner & Vent? ]

[ Did They Listen With Open Ears? ]
[ Or Did It Seem Like You Were Talking About Subjects
That They Didn’t Want Hear? ]
[ Did It Seem Really Clear? ]
[ That They Didn’t Want To Listen Here? ]

[ Were The Problems Solved? ]
[ Was Your Partner Involved? ]

[ If So, How Much? ]
[ Did They Always Try To Avoid Talking About Such & Such? ]

[ How True Were These Last Lines? ]
[ Do You Think Your Relationship Is Still Doing Fine? ]

[ Sometimes They Come Across Aloof & Vacant ]
[ You Want Them To Stay 10 More Minutes ]
[ But They Quickly Say ( I CAN’t ) ]

[ You Wonder Where It All Went Wrong? ]
[ Your Talks Used To Be Deep & Long ]

[ Now You Don’t Know What’s Going On ]
[ Are You Thinking That The Spark Is Gone? ]

[ Did It Blow Out Long Ago? ]
[ Or Didn’t You See It ]
[ Because The Regression Was So Slow? ]

[ So How Do You Make A Spark That Starts A Flame? ]
[ First Thing You Do Is Stop The Blame ]
[ Game ]

[ That Does Not Help Each Other ]
[ To Stay Together ]
[ It Doesn’t Help Trying To Be Their Father Or Mother ]

[ You Must Let Them Be Themselves ]
[ & Don’t Try To Make Them Like Someone Else ]

[ Like Someone From Your Past ]
[ Since You Are Not Still With That Person ]
[ Obviously That Relationship Did Not Last ]

[ But Everyone Has Advice That You Don’t Have To Take ]
[ & Sometimes Some People Come Across Aloof & Fake ]

[ Can You Do Anything About That? ]
[ Maybe The Next Time That You Come Up To Bat ]
[ You Can Wipe Your Shoes Off @ The Doormat ]
[ That’s Better Than Wiping Them Off On Somebody’s Back ]

[ You Have To Stop The Hurt ]
[ & Give Him Back His Shirt ]
[ But You Could Wash It First ]
