Just to get the ball rolling, I found something I wrote quite a while back... I'm sure if I tried hard enough, I could find the exact reason I wrote this piece in my memory banks, but I am not up for that :)

There is no song to accompany this one just yet. If anyone reads this and has one in mind, feel free to comment.

“Untitled”

I’ll cover my ears but not to hear you say goodbye
I’ll cover my face but not for you to see me cry
            I could be a soldier but the plane is too loud
            I could be a woman but have I not vowed
I’ll cover my mouth but not to say the words I must
I’ll cover my heart but not to block the final thrust
            I could be a singer but all I want is to kiss
            I could be a woman but I have dreaded this!
I’ll cover my self, cover my soul but not because of who you are
I’ll cover the pain, uncover the joy that we have come this far
            Who would ever thought it, I’d not have bought it
            That you and I would say farewell, tears in my lids may well
But cover up the sorrow. I must to keep it from attack
Cover up the longing just in case I want my baby back
Cover that soulful throaty groan, turn it into laughter
Cover that old fairy tale of Happy Ever After
