I want to pay you back for all you have done for me
You have given me so much
You had faith in me
Thank you
Thank you
Up above
Thank you
For your love
You had faith in me
Discredit me yet again
I am a pawn for you to play your game
You have done what is right for you
I don't wish to fight you
I will take my feet behind
Push away all the sand
I have tall feet to stand
And you will have to stay
To see me walk away.
It seems we have slipped from a dream to a nightmare.
Ow,
suppose I'd better grow up
get up and get on with the day
but
if I could find a way to delay
doing it
would I take it?

and if I won cash in
the lottery
which always seems to
have forgotten me,
must be they had a lobotomy
or it could be that they don't
like me,
I'd take it for certain and
hide it under the mattress

but
then I'd probably worry more
and sleep less,

*** it
I'll just get up
and
get on with it.
I carry your wedding ring
Around in my pocket
The weight serves not as a reminder
Of your love
But as a warning
That even you
Could show such softness

on a roll
eternal treadmill

one day
time will come
You need to take care of you
        No one else will
Inside and out
Your body and soul needs care
It doesn’t matter about the hair
Or what you wear
Neat and clean
Chin up

Today is better than yesterday,,,,
