It would have been your birthday
It would have been your night
But you're gone
And I'm alone
And I know it's just . . .

Infused into my dream's horizon
are things I ponder upon arising;
Landscapes strange- often eerie
that I visit when I grow weary.

Reflections on a windswept day
gotta go, no time to play.
Busy is the way we live
no time to rest, even less to give.
We no longer stop to smell the rose . . .

Which is her? Which is me?
A mirror image for all to see
One is perfect, no thoughts or fears
The other is used to shedding tears
One has never had heartache or pain
The other waits for hurt to gain. . . .

I try to take a drive
My husband acts like it's a crime
And grateful to arrive?

Mommy, why is the sky so blue?
Why do I look like you?
Why are you really tall?
Why am I just so small?
Why can't any dogs talk? . . .

I'm not a go-getter, appointment setter, fortune 500,

Unicorns lived and the world loved everything
My dreams never came to pass
And the unicorns . . .

And into his room I quickly sail
I pick him up and hold him close
His monsters are real, I . . .

He'll never stay
He'll walk out on you.
