Dog walks in, head held high,
Nervous and naive...

I struggle with the way I feel
Because I lack the text...

Sneakers pounding on the pavement,
Starting stretch- feet a little unsteady...

The cocoon is finally ripening, Blondie
And soon you'll shed your shell...

The winds and the crickets left today,
Presumably on some far-away vacation...

When I looked into the mirror today,
All my flaws were looking back...

Today I threw out my old clothes,
Because they are not worn anymore...

Our fire is burning out now,
But the embers are not warm...

Fear is a burden,
And courage is a virtue...

Everyday she walks slowly to school,
To meet a million chanting faces...

There's an elephant in my room today,
I'm just trying real hard to ignore it...

Acting a little funny,
Feeling a little strange...
