When a beginning starts with goodbye It can be hard to get your footingEverything is one big cryAnd wonder for what are you shooting? There’s a dream and a goal,But stagnant starts your roll You’re on the path, Following the track But goodbyes make you want to crack Missed chances are shown Of ones youContinue reading “Starting with Goodbye”

The Dark of Night
It comes in the dark of night Makes you toss and turn in bed It slips right into your room To whisper fears inside your head That mistake you made? It was costly You should be very afraidEveryone sees you quite crossly It breaks your dreams like snapping limbsAnd hides within the darkIt fights toContinue reading “The Dark of Night”
