Hover

1st vs

I have been a champion.
I have went to school.
I am not forgotten
nor do I act real cool
but life can be a struggle
if you're walking in the rain
play this party double
to hide the pain

2nd vs

I haven't been to jail
no trouble have I caused
no need for any bail
no band-aid and no gauze
for I have ran from silence
when interrupted from it's spear
I'm on navigation demilance
yet anger nigh is here

chorus

Transformation confrontation 
as love is my cover 
Transformation no patient
the angel's now do hover

chorus repeat

Hello Angela … a fine lyric indeed. When reading it’s almost impossible not to start singing - well done Angela - Lindsay

Thank you, Lindsay. I originally wrote a song similar to this and later changed it to a poem. Recently, combined the two and decided to make a song again. :)

This has the feeling of a song as I burst out into "song" and I am not a singer.

Thank you, Caren. I really appreciate you reading and commenting. I wrote poetry when I was a child and later in life I started writing songs for people. Now I'm back to poetry again. :)

Thank you, Victor for your beautiful comment. I originally wrote this as just a poem and recently decided to make it into a song. :)
