Trying To Enjoy The Ride

it hurts more to tell you i love you
then it does to say goodbye

i wanted to believe everything you told me
but i couldn't believe in lies

felt like i needed you
but i couldn't tell you why

you attacked my feelings and emotions
and left my heart to die

still i have this want for you
and its building up inside

and you know every part of me
so these feelings i cannot hide

it's hard to make any sense of this
and the Lord knows i've tried

i don't know where all this is taking me
i'm just trying to enjoy the ride

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
