Inside My Head

In my head are some thoughts I want to remain dead.

Yet if I keep them there I will never get ahead.

Let them out, speak your peace they all have said.

By myself I want to be free.

This I hope someday we all will be able to see.

For a great mother, wife, sister, friend, and daughter I know I can be.

As long as I'm near a sweet cherry tree.

For this is where my innocence was given back to me.

As one I will be with Tim, April, and Raven always in my heart times three.

And the memories we share will stay always and forever locked inside of my head.
