And I Hope

And I hope

and I pray

to tell you someday

what’s on my mind.

Though I know

I can’t show

the way I feel

within my head,

upon my heart,

beneath my soul.

And I hope

and I pray

to be able someday

to say what’s on my mind.

So I rest

on my couch

floating back into time,

past alleyways

of  memories

which are weak,

and perplexed,

but certain in direction.

And I hope

lord I pray

to let you know

you’re always on my mind...

[Coyote Poetry]

Last line of poem is one of the great songs.
"you’re always on my mind..."
Those words were good for the tavern and lonely places. I like the desire of this poem. To hope the people we care about to know they are on our mind. A excellent poem.

Wonderful...I was mesmerised for a while. Wanting to tell the deepest emotions that you have and unable to, for any reason, is a very heart breaking emotion to feel...the pain comes out of the words. I like the short sentences...the flow as well. Good write.

Beautiful, sir. Almost... melodic. I can almost hear the music building in the background and carrying the words even higher.
