Other Days
Poem and music by Deborah Stokol, 2009. Performed by Deborah Stokol, 2010. Photo by Deborah Stokol, 2005.
Some days I wake up, and I’m fine.
I mind such business as is mine.
Nothing can hurt me; I’m invincible—
Untouchable—
Infallible.
But other days, I wake up missing you.
(And you can be nothing but gone.)
They say you live on in my heart—
but my heart’s lonely,
and you feel gone.
Wishing you more of the Invincible, unstoppable, untouchable days. The others… well.. they are inspirational and your voice, music and lyrics are beautiful!
Thanks so much! Love you!
