“Every time that I look in the mirror, all these lines on my face getting clearer. The past is gone, it went by like dusk to dawn. Isn’t that the way?, everybody’s got their dues in life to pay. Half my life’s in books’ written pages, live and learn from fools and from sages. You… Continue reading Our Dues in Life to Pay

The Way It Should Be
“As we go down life’s lonesome highway, seems the hardest thing to do is to find a friend or two. A helping hand, someone who understands. That when you feel you’ve lost your way, you’ve got someone there to say I’ll show you. Say you, say me, say it for always. That’s the way it… Continue reading The Way It Should Be
At Seventeen
“The valentines I never knew, the Friday night charades of youth. Were spent on one more beautiful, at seventeen I learned the truth. And those of us with ravaged faces, lacking in the social graces. Desperately remained at home. Inventing lovers on the phone, at seventeen I learned the truth.” I know this particular Janis… Continue reading At Seventeen
An Ordinary World
“What has happened to it all?, crazy some would say. Where is the life that I recognize?, gone away. But I won’t cry for yesterday, there’s an ordinary world. Somehow I have to find, and as I try to make my way. To the ordinary world, I will learn to survive.” So as I continue… Continue reading An Ordinary World
It’s Just Overkill
“I can’t get to sleep, I think about the implications. Of diving in too deep and possibly the complications. Especially at night, I worry over situations that I know will be all right. It’s just overkill. And day after day it reappears, and night after night my heartbeat shows the fear. Ghosts appear and fade… Continue reading It’s Just Overkill
Run to Me
“If ever you’ve got rain in your heart, someone has hurt you and torn you apart. Am I unwise to open up your eyes to love me? And let it be like they said it would be, me loving you girl and you loving me. Run to me whenever you’re lonely, run to me if… Continue reading Run to Me
A Lesson Learned in Time
“Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road. Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go. So make the best of this test, and don’t ask why. It’s not a question, but a lesson learned in time. It’s something unpredictable, but in the end is right. I hope you had the… Continue reading A Lesson Learned in Time
Better Left Unsaid
“Some things are better left unsaid, some strings are better left undone. Some hearts are better left unbroken, some lives are better left untouched. Some lies are better off believed, some words are better left unspoken”. Yes, one of my most favorite underappreciated Daryl Hall and John Oates songs (it might actually be a tie… Continue reading Better Left Unsaid
It’s Hard to Die
“Goodbye my friends it’s hard to die, when all the birds are singing in the sky. Now that the spring is in the air, little children everywhere. When you see them, I’ll be there. We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun. But the wine and the song, like the seasons… Continue reading It’s Hard to Die
All By Myself…Now What?
“When I was young, I never needed anyone. And making love was just for fun, those days are gone. Living alone, I think of all the friends I’ve known. But when I dial the telephone, nobody’s home. Hard to be sure, sometimes I feel so insecure. And love so distant and obscure, remains the cure.… Continue reading All By Myself…Now What?
