[bodytext] => It seems like forever since we signed the papers. They gave you back your freedom and your name. Since then I’ve been making reparations Seems I got half our things but all the blame. I’ve seen love and hate live in the same house And I’ve learned the line between is paper thin And two people fell from love once they crossed it And got hurt so bad they never fell back in. Now I’m ringing in the New Year with this old guitar Watching moonlit skies fill up with falling snow And alone without you here I made it through this year That’s one down…and a lifetime to go. That’s one down…and a lifetime to go. On Valentines Day I drove by our old place I thought that I might catch you there at home But I just left them roses on your door step I saw his car outside and knew you weren’t alone I spent our anniversary at the old cafe On some stool like a man down on his luck In July I watched fireworks light the horizon From that back road where we parked in my old truck Now I’m ringing in the New Year with this old guitar Watching moonlit skies fill up with falling snow And alone without you here Somehow I made it through this year That’s one down…and a lifetime to go. That’s one down…and a lifetime to go. So the kids spent Thanksgiving Day at your house And they spent most of their Christmas Eve with me And they laughed when I held them up by their pajamas So they could touch the Christmas angel on the tree. My friends say I should put this all behind me And tonight we ought to paint this whole town red But I knew that my heart just wasn’t ready So I stayed home and watched TV instead And now I’m ringing in the New Year with this old guitar Watching moonlit skies fill up with falling snow And alone without you here Somehow I made it through this year That’s one down…and a lifetime to go. That’s one down…and a lifetime to go.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
