Why can’t you walk the straight line?
The officer smiles at me as he speaks.
I keep stumbling off to the side,
And it’s been this way for weeks…
Why can’t I be sinless?
Why can’t I walk the straight line?
Why can’t I keep my focus?
Why can’t I be like you?
I’m always away from you.
And I keep saying that I love you…
But, it must be lie,
I can’t seem to make it true
Why can’t I love you?
Why can’t I love you?
…
Why can’t I love you?

How many times have I and everyone one gone through this, gotten stuck in this rut... I definately felt this.
I'm glad that you commented on one of my works. I have become so inactive on this site, I used to be so much more connected. I had forgotten the connections I had on here with you and some others, and, with my memory as it is, I surprisingly still don't recall the majority of it.
Keep fighting.

Sad... I can't seem to get over this piece. It's quite the vivid picture. Very disheartening, when all's said and done. You reach for some kind of happy ending... some little shard of hope and it's just not there. It hauntingly beautiful. Very nice job.

wow Mike. This is great. Kind of sad though. Oh, by the way you know I was joking when I said I couldn't stay a day with you right??
