Funny, I’ve been writing br For a very long time. br I’ve written about love br I’ve written about hate br I’ve written about war br I’ve written about peace br I’ve written about snow br I’ve written about time br I’ve written about the meaning br Of my death. br And I’ve written some lines br That I should have erased, br I’ve written about running, br And leaving this place. br I’ve written a thousand words br Trying to understand men br And another thousand br To understand sin. br But mostly I write br To understand life br To feel what its for br To know what is right. br And the few more words br That I have In my pen, br Is all I have; br My poems and my friends.
