Push-Pull

My life I love,
That life that gives
That life that hugs
My life that grows
And lugs
And knows
That not everything will be same
In due time


My life I love,
That life that takes
That life that shoves
My life that fades
And wears the gloves
That hide
That not everything will be same
In due time


My life I love,
That life that lives
That life that shrugs
My life that’s rose
And above
The throes
That make this time more
Than some brief fling
Not everything will be same
But I’ll gladly take the blame
For wanting to keep my life,
My life,
My life,
You

 

Chains

Being apart
For so long
Far away
Makes a guy
Makes a girl
Wonder why
What mattered
Long ago
Still matters
This grey day


She looks calm
He looks old
Through a screen
That makes love
Still so close
Yet so far
Feel so false
She’s so tired
He’s so scared
This grey day


You would think
Love so strong
Could bind strings
Of bold hearts
In great chains
So one day
They could go
But their hearts
Would stay
This grey day
