There is the dark
In the darkest night
There’s a voice
That whispers softly
Telling me it
Will be all right
I cry softly
In my sorrow

On my son's "first love"
The phone rings again
I hear her voice
A mother's greatest fear
A son's first choice
Is he there? she says
Like some innocent girl
But I know how she thinks . . . more

In the silence of the morning
With my coffee and my pie
I sit in front of the computer
And see what catches my eye
The silence of the morning
Before my ears are on
I see the bustling posters
Before the . . . more

The Monster Beneath My Bed
Beneath my bed
A monster waits.
He lives on socks
And old snack cakes.
I know he's there
Lurking and waiting,

No I'm not investigating!

I want to walk in the morning stillness
To feel the silence on my skin
I want to dive in the deserted waterfalls
And feel the stillness deep within
I want to cry with tears that are joyful . . . more

You please me while you leave
And you’ve whined your last goodbye
Your staring and your wanting
Is making me just want to sigh
In mediocre circles I’d decry the web of lies
But I’m . . . more

The TV withstood

We grew apart
You never truly

You’d play in the trees
And you’d dance around
I’d carry . . . more

It's so funny how we let others decide
Who we really are inside
And when we react in different ways
Somehow we've feel it's us who've changed
Yet we are really who we were all along

I sit
and watch
and wait
in baited anticipation
You squirm
and squint
and step forward
into my waiting arms
My dreams
and hopes
and promises
held in your grasp
My child
my love
my baby
