Moved?

There’s an old green house where no one lives
Except a gray mouse and his relatives
They scrounge for scraps all through the night
And down each morsel with squeaky delight

I wonder who lived there long ago
Before this road went to and fro
Or if they’d ever even care
That now the mice are living there.

Am I

I laid down for the night in my abode
And watched the vibrant fireworks explode
The colors that I saw were bright and true
But none of them could quite compare to you
Who sparkles with an iridescent glow
Am I in love or high? I’ll never know.

The crickets chirped a charming lullaby
As stars began to decorate the sky
The mysteries of the universe are deep
Just like the feelings for you that I keep
Within the heart that misses you each day
Am I in love or dreaming, who can say?

I close my eyes but I can clearly see
Two arms that open lovingly for me
We had it all (or so we would believe)
Until that day you felt you had to leave
And now I can’t stop picturing your face
Am I in love? That seems to be the case.

Opportunistic

It's on the way
And no returns
SUCCEED I pray
My stomach churns
The dream you seek
Is yours to make
But don't be meek
Each chance you take!
