Atlantic Coast How often we dive head first into love only to find it was not so deep / If we are lucky we might end up with only a broken neck and months / of traction to keep us from our obsessions If we are not so lucky our hearts will break I have learned that a broken heart does not heal it remains unfixable and we are destined to live a long broken mistake riddled existence until one spring day a new feeling starts and where once the bloodied broken vessel beat / a new heart pounds with the song of love as we meet
At three months you cry and spittle Your Aunt rocks you in her arms I take a break and remember You are so sweet and oh so little At three years you run and giggle Your dad plays knights and castles I make the red jello blocks jiggle You are so sweet and still so little At thirteen you are about to fly Your parents remind you often make good choices please don't die My hardened heart is softened When thirty years approach I still speak about that joy of watching how you've grown into my beautiful boy
