LOVER ALL ALONE: written and performed by Clay Aiken








TWO SIDES OF THE COIN
TWO MOVEMENTS OF A SYMPHONY
TWO VIEWS OUT THE SAME WINDOW
TWO POEMS




There’s only now
There’s only this
There’s just this moment that exists

Grab it
Keep it
Savor it
Add some spice and flavor it

There’s just this day
There’s nothing more
There’s no way of knowing what’s in store

Can’t trust in tomorrow
Don’t remember yesterday
There’s always, only, just today

Notice it
Touch it
Cherish it
Hold it in your heart and nourish it

Stars may go nova
And planets collide
This moment’s your world – live it alive.
Geni 2007



4 a.m. thoughts


It doesn’t help to be wiser
When you’re older too

It doesn’t help to dream
When you know it can’t come true

It doesn’t help to cry
Alone at night in bed

And wish you could have known
Where the path had led

But who is wise enough
To see how it all will end

That life will not forgive
And youth won’t come again

That life is short
But nights have hours to fill

That wisdom only brings regrets
And dreams will haunt you still

Perhaps it’s best to not have known
And yet, you still regret it

To not have known just what you want
While there’s still time to get it
