I’ve seen this road before
Was it in a dream?
The familiarity of the leaves crunching at their core
For what could it mean?

My feet sink in each step
A robin can be heard in the distance
For even he knows I’m a wreck
As I contemplate life’s existence

Yet the road leads to another
So, I take a break from it all
And as night falls, she’s found a new lover
But here I cling to my phone, waiting on a call

As day rises, I continue on
Walking slowly, feeling tired and sore
When a thought comes to mind, with the suns dawn
I’ve seen this road before

Why do I care when you don’t even notice the weight of my existence in the day?
You always take what you need and leave your crumbs.
My mindless hunger chooses to eat.

His last words; I tried
He last heard; I know

The next day, he saw angels fly
The next week he felt them glow

The years stacked on like fire
The same years he met people he didn’t know

Until the time came like chain on a wire
Until he met the person again, that made his heart grow

Golden sunsets and skies of blue
All confess my love to you

A small house on a corner stone
Creates a place for you to call home

Steady hands and shaky feet
Is what I get each time we meet

Yet, when I’m with you, I’m as light as a feather
Here’s to a love, that will last forever

There was a time, I felt these feelings before
Words can’t describe it
A train with no tack, the earth with no core
Like an old man’s wisdom and wit

I freeze you know
Stuck in movement, praying my eye’s will see
For one look and they’re blinded by her glow
Although the risk is worth it to me

She’s not the first and she may not be last
She’s a warm summer day, out on the bay
A sailboat with sails that need no cast
Or a clear conscious with no past

I’ve felt these feelings before
Some with and without her
The kind of feeling that makes eagles soar
The kind of love that comes in goes in a blur

I dedicate this: to her

i never knew that
