UNSIGNED AND UNSUNG

There's a song I wrote, sittin' on the shelf,

might seem me, might seem somebody else,

but I wrote it when...I was feelin' all rung

and it sits on the shelf...

unsigned...and unsung.



Abstract was the potion...plastered was the prayer..

headrush was the fever...was there something there to share?

Misspent was the passion...while the fashions were full-blown...

deceptive now the motives...are we only all alone?



Ya found me here in waiting...with new starlight in my eyes.

You found me here in fading...with the smoke rings on the rise.

Confronting all the wonders...with my markers runnin' dry.

You told me it was nothing...all we claim will only die.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Well,...let's see,...I'm not quite sure how this came to be about. I wrote it for no particular reason. Guess I was just trying to say that I wanted to express something I hadn't played yet. Really simple, I suppose.

I also liked the title. It made me think of so many really good pieces of poetry simply signed Auhtor Unknown.
