How can I miss you?
When you never go away
Water’s wet sky is blue
Perpetual victim falls prey
Outside in the distance
A stranger lies in wait
Steeped in persistence
Always guarding the gate
When did I get wise?
Is the proper question
As soon as a crow flies
It disregards suggestion
Across from the station
Where young lovers flirt
All over God’s creation
Someone’s slinging dirt
When did you sale it?
And why wasn’t I involved?
Shut up and take a hit
Another problem solved

Dear D,
You still got it. An incredible meter. Made me want to sing this. The imagery played in my head of a dark bus stop. Why? No clue. But the players in this piece for me, were intertwined. Trying to run but wanting to stay. I have a longer version running in my head but I’ll spare you the directors cut😊
Wonderful write. H🌷

Just reading Honoria’s comment above & I think she’s right. This one might need to be considered for your lyrics list on the album. It has a cadence that moves & the visual is captivating. Worth considering, my friend? 🤔
Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Anything is on the table, maybe even spoken word. Never say never. The song I’m working on, I literally had to start writing lyrics to it. None of the old words were fitting the vibe. Also, I haven’t tried to write a song for many summers now. I kinda forgot sometimes the music leads the dance. lol. Appreciate you.
