03-19-2003 I'm just wondering Can't we just Turn down the volume Even if it's just for tonight I think my dreams Grow tired And my heart wary From all this running War marching Over the frequency Death and perspective Knocking on my door And here we are Lying in bed Trying to chase away our own demons Can't we Oh God Just can't you Turn down the volume I know the saying If it doesn't kill you It will only make you stronger It totally Puts everything into perspective For me right now But I feel so Irritated so Frustrated It seems like We have to I have to Grow up too fast I just feel terribly lost And extremely drained Death and reality Perspective and war Knocking Pounding Down my door I hear the angels Playing on my radio Heavenly tunes I'm always a day late To get the news I didn't get the memo I didn't get the fax Because now I just found out That Heaven Took one of their daughter's back... If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried. |

At that time, I can recall thinking that our beloved Lyra was going to be spared the ugliness of the war. You vividly brought back how so many of us felt at that time. We were being bombarded with news coverage everywhere we turned. There was no escaping it. It literally was making me sick. I think of Lyra often. Just this evening in fact--and since I have now read your poem--that makes it three times! She was, and still is, very special to us all. Lovin' hugs, Linda |
