Oh Dying
Oh dying, will your spirit rise
High above our struggles here
To find a place in heavens host
Or will you merely disappear?
I was raised within the faith
Brought up to believe and pray,
But that all seems so long ago
- like just a childhood game
Oh dying, can you see a light?
Bright, yet warm and comforting
For I can not bear to think of you,
Imagining you’ll be gone
Oh, I must leave your bedside now
As all your family gathers round
To lay their kisses on your head
Their tears upon your face
And in these last hours of the day
I’m rediscovering how to pray
A hypocrite of heart and hope
Trying to believe for both our sakes
Oh dying, can you see a light?
Bright, yet warm and comforting
For I can not bear to think of you,
Imagining you’ll be gone

My Masterpiece
I wrote a song about you,
But I can't sing it now
There are children in the crowd
It would not be appropriate
I stared at your picture
And wrote my feelings down
The words came tumbling out
In ways that weren't appropriate
Language can be so descriptive.
You inspired me
To write my masterpiece
I used the word with f
And the one that starts with b
I’m sure that you can see
Why it is inappropriate.
But you would be surprised
At how I make them rhyme.
Each and every line,
Completely Inappropriate
I guess I should be grateful
For the help you gave to me
To write my masterpiece.
Da Vinci had his Mona Lisa
And her pretty smile.
I’ll bet he stared for hours at her face
And l have you, my dear,
You made it all so clear.
I never dreamed I had so much to say.
I wrote a song about you,
Disgusting and profane.
I even used your name
And gave your cell phone number.
But I hope you understand,
It was only for arts sake,
And like I heard you say,
I hope we can be friends.
For it was nothing personal,
You just inspired me
To write my masterpiece.
Your lack of human virtue
Gave me everything I need
To write my masterpiece.
To write my masterpiece.
