7 Ways to Use a Tissue10-5-06©

I. When I lost my thought
And bumped my head on the padded walls
A shear of life came out of me
To clean my life with a tissue
II. When I feel on the wet soil
Grieving, morn, and losing my tear
â??Cause the loss of his life
The tissue upon my face
Smelt and felt
Like the warmth of your body
III. When I made a wrong person out of you
Sheltered in the prison you are in
Sitting at a dark corner
Holding the tissue
That had his love on it
IV. When I slept on your bed
Wanting and wishing you could stop by
Stealing every breath and smell of you
Pushing my luck out of my eye
Tissues holding me back one more time
V. When her child sniffed with slush
You came around the corner with a rush
She said:
â??Mommy I have a coldâ??
In a baby tone
Donâ??t worry my dear a tissue will never leave you alone
VI. When he kneeLEDn
To give you a gift by heart
A tremble in your voice
â??Yes I doâ??
Tissue holding all of your dew
VII. When she laid motionless in the tub
Blood seeping around your numb blue body
A note I see for a suicide tease
He grabbed a tissue
Wiped the blade and said:
â??Would that be all my dear?â??
