Untie My Long String
One's life has many a strand
for some the solution isn't clear
the obvious one turns out not
my answer in fact has been so near
These years of fighting my monster
yes that's it's name sits on the tongue
causing chords not to vocalise
so often your wanted words don't come
Deep frustrations working deep within
blinding oneself to real solution
that inner voice shouts let it go
this is your true and right selection
All of life been looking for release
always been there just didn't see
what does it matter if I block
just want my words to be free
So that string needs be loosed
short or long length matters not
let it go holding on is no gain
speaking gift can't be bought
Send the tension head long
over the cliff string and all
the outcome does not matter
that's you hold the head tall!
