Wishing Truths

I remember moments

So clearly its like I could feel you next to me today

That time in the car

The music playing

The song was

About you just like everything else was then

My everyday

Was imagining you

Wondering whether we might realize ourselves

I was young at heart

And only just beginning to get

Romance

I was with a girl

She was pretty

And when I looked in her eyes

She would smile

And really quite frankly

I needed nothing else

Except for that elegance

What is it causes our mind to go astray

When everything we have is

When all that we want is

When our heart is filled with love

What is it causes our mind to run away

~

I remember songs

That traveling in my car alone

I could sing at the top of my lungs

They were all for you

I’d hope you might hear them

Wherever you might be

As I traveled into the darkness

Always awaiting me

Hoping the next song

Might leave me in the light just a bit more

Before I had to dive in

The neglect of having faith in the now

~

What is it causes our mind to run away

When everything we might dream lies ahead
