Broken At Points

He was sitting on the roof
She was standing on the edge
He said, I can’t take it, no more
I was singing in her room
She was sitting on okay

I’ve been at home love
All day
On your mind
I’m always

Don’t you appreciate the truth
I’ve been on the road the least
Singing on the loose
Leaving at your peace
What to do with you
Speak and I can’t move

Nothings on your mind
Stop wasting our time
I’ve been at home love
All day
On your mind 
I’m always

She was sitting on the roof
He was standing on the edge
She said, I can’t take it, no more
I was sitting on good bye
She couldn’t afford to tell a lie 

I’ve been at home love
All day
On your mind 
I’m always

Jerry, a clever write! "Sitting on the roof...standing on the edge." I like the refrain, "On your mind I'm always." Thought-provoking images throughout this great work. Thanks for sharing, Carolyn
