Someone To Love

 

Driving and Listening With a Broken Heart

 

World Without Books

 

World Without Books

What would we read?

What would we write?

How would we plead

The tale of our plight?

A world without books

Would be a world without dreams

Unshared and lost

In an ocean of screams.

How would we know

How our brother man feels?

If we could not peruse

His way and his will?

How would we treasure

Another friend's heart?

If we could not read it

We'd stay miles apart.

A world without books

Would be a world without voice

We'd reason in silence

Not seeing a choice.

For books bid us "Come!"

And welcome us home

And allow us to find out

That we're not alone.

Winding Down

Winding

            Down

Every thing gets wound up in this world

Clocks, music boxes, hearts, life

It's how things work, how they run

Some times they get over-wound and break

Springs get sprung, music turns to discord

And lives come undone. I've always known that.

Still, I've reached for that key a thousand times

And turned hopefully and maybe carelessly

So, I guess that's what's happening to you and me now:

Things are just winding down

And tomorrow everything will stop.
