Shut Down
Shut down
hard at work
running hard to keep ahead
because if these feelings catch up with me
I'm a goner.
Love tracked me down
and I'm caught---
don't want to lose anything
but can't keep it all
too many cards
to hold in my hand
and the soul can't choose.
not a game anymore,
and the heart is racing faster
so the brain gets left behind.
oh dammitall...
did i really believe
I could juggle all this
and not drop something precious?
