In my corner..

davidbrailsford



Hey, so I found myself 

In the same old corner

Looking for a road 

To take myself down 

I couldn't decide

On a particular direction

So I stayed right there

And practiced the frown. 

Next thing I know

Its the middle of winter

Rain drops freezing

And coming down fast

So I move inside

To a place with a window

And gaze at the street

Through a sheet of glass.

 Homeless and winter

Bleak is the forecast 

Summer a dream 

That's a lifetime ahead

Mind goes awandering 

In search of home comforts

Central heating

And a nice warm bed.

At times like this

You can't help but wonder

How it might feel

For to find your feet

Trouble I guess is

The minute you find them

They take you back 

To the same old street.

Hey, I'm not complaining 

Lifes what you make it

And here in my corner

I'm free from stress 

Avoiding the line

Of the tightrope walkers

Diving failure 

From success ...
