Blister Soul

The thing we can't speak of

The secret we all know

Winning by a nose

Leaving without a sound

Those things that won't leave you alone

nothing special about this hole

in my heart

House of cards waiting for a breeze

Or maybe a cross-wind

To expose submerged beach balls

Held under by fear

What will it take?

Introduced to my sorrow

and become best of friends

Crawling under glimmering shards

of light

Lord show me your face

Lord show me your skin

I really enjoy reading your "songs", Brett. I read them a few times and let them sink in. Some of the lines come back to me during the day.
Thanks for bearing your "blister soul."

Thanks, Tom. It is always good to get encouragement. I did get some lyrical inspiration from Bill Mallonee on part of this one.
