Just In Case

Just In Case....
you
ever wondered
how things are,
here's the simple answer:
not one thing has changed
since the day you went away.

I Am


I Am
I am compassionate and loving
I wonder how the world really sees me
I hear the whispers in the wind
I see a rainbow in the sky
I want to be more courageous
I am compassionate and loving

I pretend that everything is fine
I feel the sand beneath my toes
I touch the hearts and minds of others
I worry about my children and my husband
I cry about the people that I miss
I am compassionate and loving

I understand that life is short
I say live every day to its fullest
I dream of what could have been
I try to make others happy
I hope that I'll be remembered fondly.
I am compassionate and loving

Getaway Car

If loving me meant living on the wild side,
Would you drive my getaway car?
If we could run away and never look back, 
Would you drive my getaway car?
If the whole world turned against us,
Would you drive my getaway car?
If I needed someone to save me,
Would you drive my getaway car?

Friendly smile, kind words
Show when we are face to face--
Knife goes in the back.

No matter what you choose
Everything stands to be lost
Tis a puzzlement.
