More Words

If I write it just right
You'll believe I'm alright
If I tell you my story
It'll be quite a sight

Man can sure write of glory
But don't listen to his words
Or believe his writings
Like his greatest fears
Truth, constantly hiding

But we try to hold on
We can barely let go
False documents, we know

Others seek freedom,
Freedom from it all
This too, an endless escape
Making you feel it could all be fake

So we fall back
to natural habitat
Another coffee, black
Someday we'll get it
for now, play some Nickelback

Give me my day
Before he takes me away
Hello and goodbye I shall say
Only for the night I plan to stay

Or we could hold on
Another winter to go
They say it gets greener after the snow

Just empty thoughts
Don't you know
I too possess no answer
But hate to see you go

To see you go once again
What did you expect, to play pretend
To hear me say I love you so
Their just words darling
This you should know

Sincerely,
Soko1
