You breathe
I breathe
You think
I think
You cry
I cry
You long
I long
You sleep
I sleep
You hunger
I hunger
You laugh
I laugh
You love
I can't

About this poem:
As I was singing at karaoke the other night, "What Kind Of Fool Am I" by Anthony Newley. These thoughts entered my mind.

OUR HOUSE
I'm painting the kitchen cupboards
And I've done the hallway too
But I can't decide on the trim
Misty green or powder blue
New tile on the bathroom floor
Matching shower curtain and all
But now maybe I'll just renovate
And put in a corner shower stall
When I'm done you'll really love...Our House
I don't know why I'm telling you this
You already see the finished plan
I just hope you are pleased with whatn you see
But I could use a helping hand
You can see all the mistakes I've made
And had to do it all again
But when you look down from the clouds above
You'll see a very lonely lonely man
Applying the finishing touches...to Our House
I know you're living in a bigger house
In a Mansion of Glory, up there
But with every nail I drive and each wall I paint
I'll do it with loving care
Because this is ....Our House
I bet the neighbors will all be glad
When I'm done..so they can sleep
But we talked about fixing this old place up
And it's a promise I'm gonna keep
God! I really miss you....in Our House
Oh, I almost forgot...say hi to Elvis for me!!
