  • Problems

    Nothing he said was diplomatic  Mainly just problematic  He told me I should always pray  If I wanted to stay  But he had already become a fanatic 

  • Cemetery

    She always believed in the supernatural  Waited for the ghosts to come  The ones who only ate mackerel   When no one showed, she only felt glum  Never knowing where to turn  And never knowing who to trust  She dove deep into herself  Forever or bust 

  • Running Scared

    Everywhere I seemed  To go.  You were behind  To always scare me. 

  • Forever

    Statues in the park  Worried the town will forget  Everlasting soul 

  • Again

    Unexpected chill  Showing me your cold, cruel self  Can’t love you again. 

  • Haze

    It feels like I am going crazy  When everything becomes hazy  I want to be called a mother  And give a life to your brother  Maybe I should, instead, plant a daisy 

  • Know

    No one needs to know  Anything about the show  He had already made up his mind  And could pretend to be kind  By learning how to go with the flow 

  • Coyote

    Loud music blaring  Sounds like coyotes howling  Bluebirds sing softly 

  • Baking

    After the pie exploded  He realized the instructions were coded  By not reading directions  He missed the obvious connections  Not knowing the boss was loaded 

  • Starlight

    Bright shimmering stars  Leading me away from him  And back to myself
