Solitude
One broken jewelry box
Laughing faces, midnight traces
Baseball diamonds,
Guitar strings and Nashville Dreams
Wedding rings, and divorce papers,
New beginnings and shattered endings,
New beginning and shattered endings,

Ballerina that could dance,
Twinkling melody, I could not decipher,
Of teardrops on my face,
Just another taunting from those
who could not understand
Homerun hits
Coach is nervous,
When I hit,
Taking chances
Like I have always done,
Played heavy on my mind,
Sweet 16, oh how the candles light my memories
One in blue, and one in yellow
Gosh, I wondered where my courage came from....
Color the decades of life's passing.
New world dawning, and life's worth living,
I think I missed a beat.
Like a movie reel that is playing in my mind,
Close my eyes to dream again,
The dreams I dared to dream.
