More complicated
Than straight forward
This story that I will
Try to relate
A super awful
Clumsy
Moment
I have had
Over the days
When I can’t even
Walk straight
In the month of May
So today
The words reflect
The moments
I have created
Walking into the room
Of debonair air
Confidence
Wrapped in golden dreams
Broken loose
At the seems
Is it what it seems
As slick as a midnight limo
Fluid as a stream
Save me May
Today
This month
Help us through
A tumultuous
Journey
Give us joy
Of spring upon us
Please May
What do you say?
A new let down
Happening all around
When the hopes
Of few
Befall most of us
The words fall short
Of the intended goals
My bashful wants
Fade in a clear
Glass of water
On my sink
Early in the morning
When the sun
Rose
When it should have
A sea vegetable
For the eating
In mid-April
With my own heart beating
I wish I could take
Care of the wild at sea
For there is something out there
That is inside of me
What will I remember
From today
Yesterday
Right now
Will there be a definitive
Moment
Or idea
Or blurry memories
Fading into one
Trying to go
Beyond the words
That I can muster
Created in a small
Cluster
To reach beyond
My own limits
Today
Right now
Even on off-days
Try to stay on
In a way
That connects all of us
From night to dawn
The up and downs
All-around
Are keeping me up
During these off days
A diner mug to go
With no relation
To where to go
Up and onward
Is the way to be
With my diner mug
In my hand
A Cup of Songwriting
