I’ve Got a Pink?
I’ve got a pink Rose, that is dried preserved forever– won’t fade away, no petals dropping, nothing falling; I’ve got a Pink Rose that is dried. I’ve got romance, I’ve got chocolate, and I’ve got a Pink? yes, I’ve got a pink– Rose, Forever: and I’ll never, ever have to watch it die.

How Do I
How do I talk to you after all this time You who are the same as me yet so very different You with whom we shared youth and formed dreams and through adversity rejoiced in the arrival of your child My love for you never ended but the hurt you caused runs as deep as…

At Your Best
I could say I was blind to your goodness, and unappreciative to your kindness, but I wasn’t use to being happy, or enjoying some1s company as much as I did yours. Like standing at the top of a mountain and feeling great or watching a water fall amazed, being with you I couldn’t even compare…

The Departed
Can’t walk away, won’t wave it off, don’t try to breath to take it all In So you know the path to let it out No tears fall fast to point you south Normally, go where the rivers flow But water cascades off of crimson slopes This time Cliff’s edge used as beginning of sentence…

Run Out of Excuses
