A very old song I once wrote a very long time ago to a very old friend who disappeared out of my life...I can't even remember the chords anymore...
She'll know who she is - she's the only real friend I ever had - I was 17 and we were soulmates, minds alike...you chose the bumpy, arty road and I became stuck due to circumstances...this is a song of regret...
I will stay restless
Untill the day that I hear
That you still care
I will not sleep tight
Until you, my friend
Prove you are still there
I won't breathe
I won't eat until I am sure
That there is a good reason
For this scaring silence
Until you, my friend,
Prove you are still there
Isn't it strange
How much people can change
Are you the same or
Has there come a world
Between us?
I will stay restless
Until the moment I hear
That you still care
Until you, my friend
Prove you are still there

It is strange it is weird
It is strange
It is weird
I thought that it hadn't
But it has
Disappeared
And I am well rid
Without it
I am well rid
Without the emptiness
And ugliness
of it

Sensitivity and Creativity
"The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this: A human creature born abnormally, inhumanly sensitive. To him... a touch is a blow, a sound is a noise, a misfortune is a tragedy, a joy is an ecstasy, a friend is a lover, a lover is a god, and failure is death. Add to this cruelly delicate organism the overpowering necessity to create, create, create...so that without the creating of music or poetry or books or buildings or something of meaning, his very breath is cut off from him. He must create, must pour out creation. By some strange, unknown, inward urgency he is not really alive unless he is creating." -Pearl Buck-
To me not creating is like dying from the inside...I have been dead for quite a while now...
To me not creating is like dying from the inside...I have been dead for quite a while now...

Kindred Spirits
You look at me
Tell me what you see
Does it look familiar?
Offensive or peculiar?
Do you feel ashamed?
Like you're being blamed
For stuff you don't even understand
Do they call you names?
Do they call you names?
Do they call you names?
Is your heart made of guilt
Do you understand?
What is going on inside of you
What is going in the world
Around you?
Do they call you names?
Do they call you names?
Do they call you names?
Are we kindred spirits
Or just the opposite?
You drunk as a skunk
And I, well,
Just a plain non-alcoholic
We're both in it, always
Still you look at me
And I know you see
That I'm not the one
That I used to be
To me it's still not clear
What I need to hear
If I ever need to get out of hear
Do they call you names?
Do they call you names?
Do they call you names?
Are we kindred spirits
Or just the opposite
You drunk as a skunk
And I, well,
Just a plain non-alcoholic
We're both in it, always
