Inspired

I was walking in the neighborhood with Laura

Karin and Jason drove by

they pulled over

got out of their car

as did their kids

Karin was so happy to see me

she was crying

they told me I inspire them

they were living their lives differently now

Jason told me they read

my hospital post

on Tuesday

bought Karin a plane ticket

on Wednesday

she flew to Austin

on Thursday

she sang in a studio

for the first time

original music

written by a friend

My Little Secrets by mostlygood https://soundcloud.com/mostlygood/my-little-secrets on #SoundCloud

*Here are the lyrics:

If I hurt myself today would you notice

just a little tiny cut on my thigh

Just a little tiny hole in my heart

My Little secrets my little secrets my little secrets                  Make me lie

If I scream in the darkness will you feel me

like a reckless shard of glass in your eye like a reckless pointy spur in your back my little secrets   my little secrets   

my little secrets               make me lie

I stole the hope from your innocent blue eyes

my little secrets my little secrets never die

now you're tangled in my twisted web of lies

just when you see the light I've got one more surprise

If I curl up in a ball will you keep me

I'll be writhing naked ball on your floor I'll be a writhing iron shackle in your life my little secrets my little secrets

my little secrets                  make me a lie

(guitarist Mike McKinley)
