"Troubled Times"   7 - 21 - 03



inundated by my woes

from my head down to my toes

my every nerve is on alert

from feelin the breeze to the sand of earth

i'm losing the feeling i've so treasured

for it was the way i measured

the problems in this world i exist

now i'm lost and drowning in this

someone help me find the way through

before these forces succeed and undo

all i've become, this poor lost soul

please help me fill this gaping hole

for which all my feeling went out

i have felt the emptiness about

my senses foresee the last drop falling

and a body with no more calling

please help save me, throw me a rope

for the feeling i'm losing is Hope....

Author's Notes/Comments: 

the last two lines were originally:"please help save this dying dove/for the feeling i'm losing is Love" --- but since i am happily in a relationship that wouldn't be true :) love you, baby
