Within the pages of this book
you'll find the story of my life.

The ups and downs
Sad,bad and silly too.

Reading on you'll find the words
never spoken nor even told...
About the things I love,
its places I've been.

Within the pages of this book
you'll find my deepest thoughts,
secrets kept.
Along with chapters of friends,
what they mean to me.

As you read check each line
for between each one you'll
find my love.

Within a pair of old jeans
You find empty frayed ends of something you can't remember

You'll find the bleach when no powder was there to was in a bowl
You'll see the tatters from a city and a home
that lasted for a day too long

The bottoms hanging out the knees have
Scruffy hanging still
But servicable
Supporting
Looking good
And in my back pocket
you'll find my deepest thoughts,
secrets kept.
Along with chapters of friends,
what they mean to me.

As you read check each line
for between each one you'll
find my love.

Take care of your old jeans and their memories

Dave
