I wish I could remember
(From the Woodsman’s Notebook)

I wish I could remember the things like you, the fears and the trouble caused by you. Instead I’ve forgotten so what’s the point, fighting and arguing to prove yet another point. We are not children you and I, so why do we hurt each other by and by. My love for you is so very strong, I try to understand why we can’t get along. You blamed me as I blamed you, where can it stop, what do we do? I know we can make our love grow, but it takes both of us to make it show. We had our differences with family and friends, but I defended you to the very end, even now at our marriages end. For those who blame you in our married life, I still back them down because at this point you are still my wife. I’ve found it easy to turn on family and friends, who try to act so mighty but for them the rules bend. I know I made my mistakes and you made yours, please forgive me mine like I did yours.

I wonder if
(From the Woodsman’s Notebook)

I wonder if you’ll take me back when I get my life on track.
I wonder if you will meet me there with your special brand of loving care.
I wonder if you will be there when I get out to see the changes I have made.
Or will you just stay away and call it another game I played.
I wonder if you know my love is true when you see what I will do for you.
Yes the treatment is meant for me but these changes can benefit you too.
I wonder if you’ll take me back when I get my life on track.
