Some of Your Planes   - Richard Lumsden

Some of your planes

Will come down.

Some of your rain

Will fall.

Some of your fires

Won’t burn.

Some of your lovers

Won’t call.

And when you’re on the floor,

You come back for more.

You see the light shining through

The holes in your roof.

Some of your truth

Will be lies.

Some of your boats

Will drown.

Nothing will last

Without change.

Some of your friends

Let you down.

And when you’re on the floor,

You come back for more.

You see the light shining through

The holes in your roof.

Lift your head and breathe the air.

Live the bravest life you dare.

Love until

There’s nothing there.

It was when I heard the line "Live the bravest life you dare"

that I decided to stop working for someone else and write. KC
