Inexplicably Explicable
By: Noah Eaton
10/17/02

They say there are thirteen ways of looking at a blackbird
Seems today I could only detect nine
Some say you either hear inflections or innuendoes
But in the end it doesn’t matter, it becomes just a pantomime

And if only you were here I’d feel okay
Living another empty day

I believe with all my heart it was the nightingale
Perhaps we’re fickle but love is something we can’t leave behind
My love for you is inexplicably explicable
Your smile exceeds the heavens, your breathtakingly beauty blinds my eyes

If only I can find all the right words to say
And make it through another empty day

It’ll be okay
It’ll be okay
It’ll be okay
I believe
It’ll be okay
It’ll be okay
It’ll be okay
I believe…

I laid in bed most of the afternoon
Lost in your kaleidoscope fever, daydreaming of you
Wishing I could be there lying under those palm trees
Feel your head against my chest, crooning the blues

Promise me you won’t run away
I want to fill every one of your empty days

It’ll be okay
It’ll be okay
It’ll be okay
I believe
It’ll be okay
It’ll be okay
It’ll be okay
I believe…
Please stay strong
Please stay strong
Please stay strong
Love will find a way
It’ll be okay
It’ll be okay
It’ll be okay, sweetheart
Love, I believe…

Noah, the seas of love don't always roll smoothly. May calm waters be just ahead.

Warm hugs for a warm heart

Noah, this is so sweet...but so sad, too. I like the way you're sharing your emotions. Good therapy, I think. It helps me to write my feelings on paper.  I hope everything is better real soon. Thanks for sharing.


Love To All,
Ethel....garysgirl

Noah, true love never runs smooth or something like that. I truly hope you and Joanna can work this out.

Beautiful but sad poem.  Hugs, Marti
