What’s on My Mind

Sometimes you drive me crazy
Yes you drive me wild
So I tell you secrets
Just to see you smile

Then I second guess
Myself at night
Did I say something that
Might come back to bite

Why don’t I
Just try
To say what’s on my mind

So I lay down breadcrumbs
Rye in snow
Hidden messages that lead
Back to my home

Waiting up for doorbells
Taps on the window
Shadows in the porch lights
Whispers in alto

Sunday morn comes slowly
Off of Saturday night
I’m not one for waking
When I don’t feel right

So many words left waiting
For just the right time
At this pace I’m looking
At a lonely life
