I Know What I Heard!
Somebody told me,
it was what nobody, put in my head
but I knew, I had not really heard;
‘Till, I listened to what anybody said!
So I set my journey to find him,
Looked up his address…I would give call!
I needed to here from, his-own point of view
I searched every whim – to get hold of him
I couldn’t just tell it too anybody, yet I wanted
to give my all!
If you knew how I looked…you’d be looking too!
Twas’ life’s struggle I wished to discuss – us two
I needed perspective, a fresh taste, anew…
And although I didn’t find anybody – I did hear he
looked for me too.
Nobody can give us the way of life.
And when somebody tries, they just create strife.
Still I long to hear, I want to see…get ahead,
though I know, it’s due to not hearing
What anybody said…
