Love and Time

They say that time will fix it.
Time will heal a broken heart.
What they don't say is, that
day after day you will
still have to deal with the scars.
They say in time
it gets better.
I guess in some ways
it does.
Before the Love
you don't know the difference.
Now in some ways it's worse.
Funny how Love
can open up your life.
And sometimes
when it goes,
it leaves behind a hole.
Right there,
where the Love
once was.

Oh Well, Tell My Heart

I've always heard
it's a long way
from your head
to your heart.
You have your life.
I have mine.
I hope someday
they will combine.
In my heart
They already have.
In my heart
it's happy ever after,
full of laughter,
full of charm.
Arm in arm.
My heart has a mind
of it's own.
And a love
that goes on and on.
You tell me,
 let it be.
Too hard on you.
Too hard on me.
Oh well, tell my heart.

Come Live With Me

The Autumn breeze blows, bringing with it the scent of you.
Falling leaves color  my sight as vivid memories are brought into view.
On my way to work in the morning, I see a man riding his bike.You.
Driving down the road I see a daddy walking his little girl to the school bus.You.
What have you been up to?
Are you destined to dwell in my heart forever?
Are you going to roam  through my thoughts endlessly?
I would say, "Come live with me."  But you already do.
