I always try to do my best
the best way that I know how.
Sometimes? I hit home runs
other times I just hit fouls...

it doesn't mean I'm right or wrong
or that I always know my way
I am not all that different from you...
we         all seek the light of day.

I only know that I must keep trying
to be better in the things I have to be...
if you see me standing in the darkness
please,    light a candle for me...

so that I might stay on track
and not lose focus of who I am
I can only strive to do my best..

can't you at least try to understand?


I refuse to make plans past this moment in time....

Ah...you asked...and it seems
more like, "Home Run, Fouled"...

I think it might be you who holds the candle match.

A very excellent write sweet lady!
Much enjoyed the read.

Something tugs at me, I've no doubt of that.
Something from the sea, whichever one I'm near.
When I stray too far from beachland, it calls me back
