21. Whenever I See You
What does it look like when a heart breaks?
Is it watery eyes driving the interstate?
What does it sound like when the pieces fall away?
Is it rhythm and melody?
What does it look like when a heart breaks?
Is it watery eyes driving the interstate?
What does it sound like when the pieces fall away?
Is it rhythm and melody?
Good to get it out there. I do hope the writing helped. Even if it didn't help you, I'm sure it will help others.
Best wishes, Ann

I know we're old now and our bodies don't work as they should.
But if I could dance with you once more I surely would.
To dance as we did without a care.

From the moment our eyes met,
My soul could never forget.
You handed me your number on a scrap piece of paper
And walked away with my heart.
Be with me whenever you can.
Love me for what I am.
Convince me when I am in doubt.
Better today than I was before,
in this moment with the one whom I adore.
Take the fall, take the risk.
Maybe end up twisted, tangled, worn out, missed.
If you love somebody with your heart, soul, and mind,
Every road to adventure is one of a kind.
Though the road may be rugged and your spirits are high,
Still the sun seems to shine on the loved ones going by.
Do you know how much she loves you?
Do you know how much she cares?
Do you know she would do anything for you?
Hurt you? She wouldn't dare!
You supply the lips and I'll supply the kiss,
You supply the chance and I'll supply the bliss.
You supply the truth and I'll supply the trust,
You supply the time and I'll supply the lust.
I don't understand
why can't you see
just what your yelling is doing to me
open your eyes
I'll always remember the day I met you
The way you used to hold me, the day we said I do
We were always together, at work or at play
I don’t want attachment.
I want love.
I don’t want you to be
Time only means our love will grow.
May we dance to a tempo sure and slow.
Once we built fortresses of snow,
Let me mend your broken heart
and wipe away your tears.
Let me hold you to stop your violent shaking
and warm your freezing hands.
Time is like the wind,
Slow and smooth.
Time can change swiftly,
Fast and fierce.
Don't judge my cover; it's not mine.
I was given this to wear for the duration of my time.
Over time it has become creased, ripped, and worn,
A once perfect canvas the day I was born.
Famous Poem
No one worth possessing
Can be quite possessed;
Lay that on your heart,
My young angry dear;
I light a torch and hold it high
It shines so bright it lights the sky
You see the light, you know it's me
You find the strength and set yourself free
do your secrets rip and roar?
do they tear at you with open claws?
do your secrets dig down deep?
do the make you want to speak?
If you see the pain upon my face, it's not so hard to take.
Although it hurts a lot sometimes, it's a very special ache.
If I seem to be uneasy or appear to be so blue,
It's just my heart's too small to hold all the love I feel for you.
