Happy Birthday Lisa
Hope you have a great day
With love and hugs
xxxx

Back then in the night,
unexpected your call.
Living your fight,
hearing your fall.

Your demons were battled
you picked your self up.
sometimes being rattled
half empty your cup.

but mostly were wise;
old head on young shoulders.
cutting through his lies,
letting love's embers smolder.

Pushed the excrement out
stepped away from the wrong
Lost all your doubts
grew evermore strong.

And look at you now
my god you're a strange one
we got here somehow
as time malingered on.

A friendship that grew,
found like a needle in hay.
neither of us knew,
we would be here today.

being less than a lover
but more than a friend
there for each other
our heartaches to mend.

People enter our lives freely,
at the moment when they're needed.
they exist there for an indeterminate time,
before disappearing back from whence they came;
or remaining, at our side, forever more,
becoming a true and valued friend.

to those we consider a friend,
we give of ourselves freely;
all they require and yet more.
sharing support and kindess when they're needed,
promising to be there when the fearful moments came;
for them there's no limit to our time.

When illness arrives, it doesn't care about the time.
When all we need is a good friend,
to bring hope and happiness when they came
into our life to save us, and freely
they take care of all that's needed;
and showing us they are something more.

and friendships we always are seeking more,
people with whom we don't mind sharing our time.
those moments of socialization being what is needed,
yes! We seek out the company of a good friend.
with whom pleasure always comes freely;
And we're always glad they came.

And those moments that into our lives came,
the happy times; we can't help but wish for more.
but the days, weeks, months pass far too freely;
and everything we have to do, it's hard to find time
but when we spy a close and dear friend,
it's never hard to see where we're needed.

But those who appear only when needed
and only exist during the moment they came
Maybe never really becoming a friend.
a distraction from ourselves nothing more.
We never can see that at the time,
and hope for more, welcome them to our life freely.

How will they be when needed, stay for the crisis nothing more?
And when that moment came; do they share with us their time?
Always hoping for a friend; to make our smiles come back freely.

Make up your mind or all will be lost;
you never take a decision, yet you know the cost.
It's already so long and still we're nowhere,
Please empty your mind and with us do share.--
      After all, we are but 'the bossed'.

Time passes quickly, summer turns to frost.
I worry of all the time we have lost.
Loss of reputation being more than you'd bare.--
      Make up your mind...

Thought by now that you'd have it sussed,
but our concerns, in the bin, you have just tossed.
Kept in the dark; which just isn't fair
punishment, failure; as if we don't care!
I think we all know the inevitable cost.--
      Make up your mind...

Someone somewhere has unglued our epoxy

Someone somewhere has unglued our epoxy
And now I'm kissing you by proxy
Hope you don't mind
Somewhere someone is dreaming of me
Tries to love me, hope you don't mind

I love you
intermittently
I love you intermittently

She's a lot like you but she don't look like you
Okay, she's not you
But she'll do fine
I got my life on hold just to avoid confrontation
But should I tell you to your face and
Risk my hide?

I love you
intermittently
I love you intermittently

When immeasurably
Turns to intermittently
There's no use in going on
Except for fear of being wrong
Every morning I just hit the ground yawning...
Stick around if you enjoy disaster
'Cause if you can't see what I'm after
You must be blind

I love you
intermittently
I love you intermittently

Didn't have the heart to say goodbye
So I continued in my charlatan ways
Did I say heart?
I meant to say guts
So now I'm on my own
And I'm sorry that you're gone

Everything right is wrong again
Just like in the long long trailer
All the dishes got broken and the car kept driving
And nobody would stop to save her

Wake me when it's over, touch my face
Tell me every word has been erased
Don't you want to know the reason
Why the cupboard's not appealing
Don't you get the feeling that

Everything that's right is wrong again
You're a weasel overcome with dinge
Weasel overcome but not before the damage done
The healing doesn't stop the feeling

Everything right is wrong again
Just like in the long long trailer
All the dishes got broken and the car kept driving
And nobody would stop to save her

And now the song is over now
And now the song is over now
And now the song is over now
The song is over now

Everything right is wrong again
Every movement false, every four is waltz again
Every five and dime's been gained and spent
Tell me that you like my float upstream
Draw the line dividing laugh and scream
You know everything that I know so I know
You've heard the voice that makes the silent noise
That says that

Everything that's right is wrong again
You're a weasel overcome with dinge
Weasel overcome but not before the damage done
The healing doesn't stop the feeling

Everything right is wrong again
Just like in the long long trailer
All the dishes got broken and the car kept driving
And nobody would stop to save her

And now the song is over now
And now the song is over now
And now the song is over now
The song is over now

On my other blog (well, on one of my other blogs) I'm writing about my trip away; I'm not a one to re-post or re-hash ... so here's the link. Go read about it there. The first part has been uploaded, there's another two, maybe three, to come.

"...or there and back again (part one)"

(I'm going away for a bit, but will return soon... not that anyone will miss me )

catch you later

You are gone, but not forgotten.
The deeds done, the wars fought.
You are gone, but not forgotten.
From death, the legacy of peace bought
You are gone, but not forgotten.
Though we may never know all your names
You are gone, but not forgotten.
Timeless heroism puts us to shame.
You are gone, but not forgotten.
Was it worth it, all the cost?
You are gone, but not forgotten.
All the young lives that we have lost.
You are gone, but not forgotten.
So this day, a nation stands mourning
You are gone, but not forgotten.
respects paid, for our new day dawning
You are gone, but not forgotten.
But still your ranks dost swell
You are gone, but not forgotten
still war remains, we know it well.
