It all started when it ended They call it, New Beginning Everything as it should be Closed doors Open other ones Dirty windows Still let in the sun JLF 11/20/19

The ups and downs Hanging on by a string Overly excited Under the influence Of everything You’re only young once! Being older Is not half bad But the memories are fading, Like the dreams I once had You’re only young once. JLF 3/13/20

The nights are lonely When you’re in the other room There’s not much else that I can do Other than to cry All by myself I cry Every night The nights are lonely Your side of the bed Remains empty The covers don’t do much justice They’ll never be warm, like your touch is God […]
