Never Immune

Heartsick young love songs, tempered in glass

And cellophane wars we can’t win

Ships sink on water and spilled, spoiled wine

How my bones like to dance in my skin

I listen for melodies sweeter than mine

My harmony set to a tune

My carousel lessons I’ll learn once again

Oh, but to love I am never immune.

Like liars wrapped up, their blinders affixed

Narrowing windows of sun

I hear it, an adage, and a beat in my brain but

Some foolish things can’t be undone.

I’m out of order, a pen and ink sign

Slapped to the side of my head

But soft rain and sunshine will win for the day

Underground I am better off dead.

I look for the summer, a springboard to fall

And a sky for my bright red balloon

A smile for morning and a kiss for the road

No, to love I am never immune.

Oh, my love I am never immune.

A song I wrote....but I very much love the lyrics, so I've posted them. :)
