Dear Mommy,
Thank you so much for my life...
Little one,
I make my vow to you...
A man riding hell-bent for leather,
Was wondering who was the better...
She was just a baby when he swept her away,
His experience was measured in years and hers was...
Life isn't easy,
And I'm nearly beating myself to death...
Tiny bits of memories,
They trickle down from somewhere deep inside...
The drizzle of the fall rain comes down,
It cools, it soothes, taking away the summer...
Spewing along the dingy walls,
Creeping, crawling, on the edge of light...
Nothing seems more sad, when I see that old woman,
A dedicated wife, really a saint...
When I frown,
When I ponder...
What does it take,
To feel something, anything...
Deep in the Big Swamp,
Somewhere near the 'Glades...
