After all these many years
It's only natural
For a fire to dim in flame
Doesn't mean it's going out
Or even for the ride
To shift to lower gears
Doesn't mean the love has died
After all these many years

After all these many years
There is still that loving spark
To keep the flame alive
As we're both still in this car
With the gear in drive
In the front seat side by side
Slowly as we steer
After all these many years
As the world is spinning left

I am running right

As fast as these feet can carry me

In the hopes I might

Reverse the spin that it's in

And get back some of life

I have lost along the way

I would love to find

With plenty of traction

As these shoes are new

Well aware an old slick pair

Never would they do

To counter act the years of spinning

The day this world took flight

With motion moving to the left

And mine fast to the right
it is my
intention to
collect the world
old and new
and store it all
in my garage
all the ends
with all the odds
one piece
one treasure
at a time
until the world's
entirely mine
then i will sit
with all i've got
and enjoy the world
in my garage
AH ! Choo ! My haiku !
I just blew the words away
Keep them , they're yours now .
Hey there,
Its been such a long time,
My arm is still in your murky water,
And I'm still here waiting for you.
But it's time to let you go,
I see you breathing under water,
And I can't wait for you anymore.
You brush away the hands that reach
Deep into your pain,
And though they know,
You just can't let it go,
So I can't watch you become a fish,
Because my life has to be lived,
I'll miss you and remember you
When you breathed air,
So now I'll let you swim away.
In response to the daily. Its personal.
