All that remains: here in my afterlife as a 'mainstream' blogger, with what little I know.

Perfecting the Craft of 'I Love Yous'
Harmonize...

I don't know where the lyric should begin
Jump right in?
Forsake perfection?
What if I don't know how
The song should end?

What if I'm off key?
Too many questions from one
Whose squandered opportunity
I see you turn away
I need your eyes

I don't know how the lyric should start
With you in my heart
I want you near
I want you to hear
Trouble finding this beauty within

Is this the day?
Are the words I long to speak
On the way?
As my voice trails off
Need to think some more

Stall...

I don't know why the lyric should end
Dreams so close to touch
If I could see the stars
And me in your misty eyes
Are they for me, because I...?

Stall...

You take your seat
I'll stake mine, hold your hand
Try to find what's in my heart
This very last time.
The music rises, curtains up.
