Don’t Control Me
(From The Woodsman’s Notebook)

Don’t control me, don’t even try.
You can’t catch the wind nor can you touch the sky.
In their natural state you know they are there, but try to grab onto it and nothing their. The beauty of the sun is brilliant and true, but at night it will disappear on you. The Timber Wolf is timid and also shy and knows the forest much better than you or I; you may get a fleeting glimpse from the corner of an eye. As sure as you are to have seen him like the wind he’s gone again, you just ask yourself; How and Why?

Honest Love
(From the Woodsman’s Notebook)

Your love for me was honest and true; I had no reason to have any doubt in you. We had our differences both you and I, you had your point and I had mine. I made my mistakes and you made yours, but there was never enough to close the doors.
I tried so hard to remember like you, all the mistakes you did to me like I did to you. But it’s funny I can’t remember one; they must have been forgiven and forgotten by each morning sun.
I wish we could get away from this game of getting even, and work on a life of forgiveness and forgotten. I wish we could communicate like those days when we would date. I wish we could live out our lives with the plans we made, with compromise, trust and trade. In Oshkosh we thought we could change our life, I’m sure like I you didn’t know how right. I am glad I feel saved by the bell, but not in time to miss the hell. Our marriage is broken because we can’t agree, that communication we lost, between you and me.
