The Cost of Dreaming of You
My first love
Oh what a thrill
to think back
My first love
though it hurts sometimes
I love to
think of you
Of the times we had
Of who you were
Of who I wanted you to be
........
The memories of 5 and 1/2 years
don't go away too quickly
a love I wanted to stay
and be married one day
You....
You remind me of the things I never knew
the things I learned with you
the times of the past you lived you told me about the music back then was so sweet
like the Moody Blues
I'm an old soul
I want to be with you
chasing the clouds away
back in a time of simplicity and love
a time groovy
I want to be a hippie
loving freely and
peacefully
That is the Cost of dreaming of you
Distractions
In the quiet of the library
A child screams
Suddenly
This place of relaxation and peace
is
out of control!
I'm writing
Trying to concentrate
Amidst the noise
It almost drives me crazy this distraction
****
Distraction is my daily food
To keep my mind occupied
From you
I work, I play
I walk the dog and with friends I stay
Life has new meaning
It's full of things that take and occupy time, my time
These distractions
Are a blessing
And my life is full
Of good things and some bad
All are distractions
Hopefully to take my mind of the waiting
I am distracted.
