emitting musical verses
to calm the inner child~
healing...

Midst many senior-citizens of our little township,
Has been Mr. Captain, a solemn man in his mid-nineties,
One, enjoying each-and-everyone's abundant friendship,
Who looked much younger, yet, as though just in his late sixties...

There's a secret hidden in...

This love at first sight
Leaves my jaws pretty tight
Lips tremble despite the confusion so slight
I remain just calm to serve on right
But I see a night in broad daylight
I ask myself, is this fiction twilight

candles burning 
in the wind
good runs out

foretelling lies
