Infinite Theory

It’s a beautiful day here in small town Ohio and I thought why not take a walk down the philosophical side today. What follows is something I wrote quite some time back. Note that I have no idea if the ideas and concepts I’m discussing have been brought up by anyone before me. However, I…

No Stranger To Our Past

Well she came to me a cryin’ mess,I thought I’d at least try my best,to console the girl who taught me about love. But little did I know, it was all a show.She acted her part, and played the role,of someone I’d hurt a few long years ago. Said everything had been just fine,’til I…

Crazy Tryin’

When Willie sang he was crazy for tryin’,I always thought he was lyin’,Cause for her I’d go wherever the wind blows. And here I am, without you, and I’m feelin’ so blue,But now tryin’s just gettin’ too old. Oh I’ll go on for awhile,Just to see that sweet smile,I’ll keep tryin’ and cryin’ for you.

Out At Sea

When I was younger, maybe 9 or 10 or 11, I used to lay awake in my room at night looking out the window where the moonlight would pour in from a clear country night sky. I’d lay there, much like I still do today, and likely will for much of my life to come,…

When the sun’s set and one can see the early streaks of a dusk sky, I sit on on my porch and listen to the rain as it falls around my dry self. The air gets that washed-away scent as if all the smells that were there previous have been erased. Like a canvas that…

What’s Lost

Sometimes you think, “This could never end.” Other times it’s, “What could possibly come between this? Nothing will ever split this up.” And then the day comes and it’s just over. That thing you believed would go on forever and could never be broken- yet right before your eyes that very thing has ended. You…

One Last Dance

One last dance to share, between you and I. But it won’t be in a ballroom, rather under a starlit sky. I’ll lead you through the finest waltz I can muster, She’ll follow my steps, because I know I can trust her. A caper here, a gambol next- or we can can keep it simple,…

A Splash Of Sun

When life seemed dull and full of gray, she came along and brought me better days. I was filled with warmth but it wasn’t the sun’s- The feeling that made me realize you were the one. But what happens next neither me nor you could know, we got older, the warmth faded, and apart we…
