Older (2006)

the wheels are coming off
the motor is slowing
the body is falling apart
the age has started showing

is it too late to replace
should i keep this going
or pull over and stop
there's just no way of knowing

my time with me
is still growing
but fighting the past
and all that i have been sowing

the end of the road is near
their calling keeps growing
the time draws close
this life i'll be throwing

The Card (2002)

Today I was supposed to give you a card.
For some reason or another, I found it rather hard.

I should have searched for one several weeks back.
But, that task never made it to my to do stack.

I have not a good excuse, nor do I like them anyway.
I forgot your card, but not you, on this Valentine's Day.

I promise to try to stay steadfast in a future card endeavor.
But, today I hope you will accept this; I will love you forever.
