Overextended and hurting again
is it only in love that I bend
only here with my heart in a mess
that I let my feelings come undressed
its never easy…never thought it was
this aching feeling that lingers from love.

Love’s confusing…its an overload dream
I’ve got too many feelings and I don’t know what they mean
quicksilver lady, i cannot pin her down
quicksilver lady, her presence is a dream
my easy drifting is gone without a trace
our lover’s dancing all other time’s erased
I’ve got to focus…I feel this more each day
love should have its moments, but life’s the game I’d play
come then, tell her… let her stay or slip away
these days, so full of essences, to me just steps along my way
I love this lady…she’s more mirror than I’ve seen
but more than soft and easy…she’s a lover’s tangled dream.

         To: Dennis Gallagher
         So much to tell you
         Dear Diary
         And yet --- My life runs in circles
         and spirals
         Sometimes forwards
         Sometimes at a standstill
         OH TIME: tell me
         Is it yet?
         Is he the ONE
         With whom I can settle?
         Put down more roots?
         Here is a woman
         Vital and loving
         Who will want her children?
         To spend TIME with.
         The gamble is the mystery
         and the solution is
               LIFE
