Picture this, a long hallway all lined with words There’s writing on walls Perched atop the banister are ravens, the blackest birds As you softly tiptoe through these dark, sadistic halls Picture this, an unmarked door confronts you You know not what’s within A frightening cry, it pierces through Compels you to come in Picture … More Picture This

Slowly open up the door, see the clock; its five fifteen Loosen up the shirt, look in the mirror; a familiar scene Now the long days over, let’s decide what all we’re gonna do Whole day spent at work just thinking ‘bout the things I’d do with you So much time is wasted at these … More Separate

Priorities

Hello my friend, please dim the light A tale I have for you tonight About a man, who long ago Was hanging up the mistletoe For ‘twas December, and time for he To decorate the Christmas tree This man; a husband, a father, too His family should come first, it’s true And yet ‘twas something, … More Priorities
