White Entrance

What would you want to see in
the first moment you walk in the door,
the something that tells you
that you are home or
the last thing when you are
on your way out the door?

I think I want to see light,
a place to put my hat and coat
and outside gear,

symbols of faith and family and
my reasons to live on the wall,
and something that always smells good,
maybe a wreath or sachet.

I'd probably put a mirror on or by the door
so I can catch any loose ends which might
unravel me during the day's business
.


I think I would want a closet and
boxes or racks for shoes,
maybe a bench to sit on near the door
in case something is difficult to put on or take off.



White Space

I want to live in space
that is simple and clean
with all I need close by

White Heather

It is said the Scots carried white 
heather
with them for protection and good fortune.
I am in need of both and so are you
 so here is white heather for us both
for the best possible results to come from
this relationship we will never have

Sorry seems to be the hardest word.

It has been a few years since I met you by chance in the dark on the 4th of July and talked with you momentarily. I could never say the right thing. Every waking moment contains that moment. I have never stopped wanting to go back to that moment again.

The years are passing away but the feelings are not so I think I'll just keep them for the rest of my life. I don't know how to talk to you about them without making a worse mess so I'll just put them here and think about them and decorate them and stuff.

They are of no use to you, but they help soothe the pain for me of getting through the rest of my life as a solitary woman with no partner.Solitude is better than a bad partner.

 
What've I got to do to make you love me? 
What've I got to do to make you care? 
What do I do when lightning strikes me? 
And I wake to find that you're not there? 

What've I got to do to make you want me? 
What've I got to do to be heard? 
What do I say when it's all over? 
Sorry seems to be the hardest word. 

It's sad, so sad It's a sad, sad situation. 
And it's getting more and more absurd. 
It's sad, so sad 
Why can't we talk it over? 
Oh it seems to me 
That sorry seems to be the hardest word. 

What do I do to make you want me? 
What I got to do to be heard? 
What do I say when it's all over? 
Sorry seems to be the hardest word. 
It's sad, so sad It's a sad, sad situation. 
And it's getting more and more absurd. 
It's sad, so sad Why can't we talk it over? 

Oh it seems to me 
That sorry seems to be the hardest word. 

Yeh. Sorry 

What've I got to do to make you love me? 
What've I got to do to be heard? 
What do I do when lightning strikes me? 
What have I got to do? 
What have I got to do? 
When sorry seems to be the hardest word.
