Every Day

Every day that I see your face 
Is another day in the race
That I don’t want eraced

From my mind
In which I find
The kind of bind 

That keeps me sane 
As I stand in the rain
And take the pain
That only the vain 

Can create
As they permeate 
Fate with their hate

Only you keep me true
When in view, i havn’t a clue what to do 
To live up to you

In this race, I keep the pace 
As I chase a trace of you

And me and what we could be
As we sit under a tree 
And relish life without destiny
