Suddenly I Am Thrust
by David GarnerSuddenly I am thrust with the need,
and I do mean NEED,
to connect to new love, old love, some kind of great love,
and I do mean GREAT
love.
Suddenly I am thrust with the need,
and I do mean NEED,
to find new friendships, old friendships, some kind of strong friendships,
and I do mean STRONG
friendships.
Suddenly I am thrust with the need,
and I do mean NEED,
to invest in new values, old values, some kind of real values,
and I do mean REAL
values.
Suddenly I am thrust with the need,
and I do mean NEED,
to live my life, new life, old life, some kind of true life,
and I do mean TRUE
life.
I do mean NEED.
And I do mean GREAT.
And I do mean NEED.
And I do mean STRONG.
And I do mean NEED.
And I do mean TRUE. 06/03/2008 Posted on 06/03/2008
