Second Plan

Was I brave or was I reckless
I can’t decide as I look at this
Mess I’m in with only me to blame

Was it wrong to think that love is
Bigger than the walls around us
Nothing here will ever be the same

Clouds roll in and I roll over
In my bed but it’s not over
Questions linger hanging from
These ceilings where the pain began

I don’t know how to recover
Grasping just to face another
Day where I can understand
To love without a second plan

Was I brave or was I reckless
I can’t decide as I look at this
Mess I’m in with only me to blame

Still I must believe that love is
Bigger than these walls around us
When it comes it changes everything

  1. Who decided the meaning of words?
    Who put the definition behind each phrase?
    To say fish are fish and birds are birds
    Why a dog lies and a chicken lays

    Why do the words “I love you”
    Make me feel different
    Than “there’s gum on my shoe”?
    Who packed into each word, it’s content?

    Who decided that gold is gold
    And said silver must be silver?
    That a lion is bold
    And a cold person will shiver?

    Who said decided “go away”
    Would cause me to cry
    And the words “please stay”
    Would put a smile in my eye?

    Why does “I miss you”
    Stall my heart and my steal my breath?
    Why are the words sweet like honeydew?

    You put the meaning into the words

  2. It’s just one of those days
    One of those terrible, no good, very bad days
    Remember how I used to call you
    And cry until you made it all better

    But today I find you no where
    I wish I could because I’m so scared
    But today there’s no relief
    So I’ll cry until the bell rings

    I close my eyes and wish
    To find myself cradled in your arms
    But this time I’ll go it alone
    On my terrible, no good, very bad day
