Tampering convictions It’s on its way to me again Those feelings unrest, feelings of sin My mind is harboring thoughts of flight My heart isn’t ready for the fight ~ It’s on its way to me again ~*~ curious and curious still how my heart cries out to wander hills to find in strange come lonesome towns unfamiliar faces all around where clocks tick backward in a click emotions never seem to stick where one can ride their way at night into a sanctum near twilight where eyes of prey beg one to play and no one hears these inner ways of timed round sound that’s wearing down will this cry soon tamper ground convictions that have forced me round this straight and long, oh-so-narrow path that beg me peace, but here’s the math and P.S. to you who hears this plea Frances keeps me company split/divides/conquers, then hides waving bony fingers wide play the song that rounds your bend know that ache will never end little girl, you’re no real tease and no road will ever ease that cry I hear there in your soul little girl, you are growing old. Convictions tamper down this bile uneasy sits this mind gone wild and split/divides me guilty true, that it still plays thoughts of wayward you. |

Deca, Deca, Deca....what'm I gonna do with you! Well, I did wake up with Bonnie & Clyde music looping in my head -- again -- maybe I'll play it once for you and send you a mindgram of it, just to torment your daydreamin' self! ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

"It’s on its way to me again Those feelings unrest, feelings of sin My mind is harboring thoughts of flight My heart isn’t ready for the fight ~ It’s on its way to me again" Perfect Deca...just perfect! ![]() Hugs~ ~ Those who complain the sun has gone out of their world |

Ah yes, I feel this one. Excellent. ![]() Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

How I miss it, too... I've never been lonely alone. It's always when I'm with someone who isn't completely there that the ache of loneliness sets in. I want my knapsack back. ![]() |
