Until Eyes Close

Kurt Philip Behm

The picture worth 1000 words

is priced only one way

 

Its value screaming

—until eyes close

To Finish This Song

 

What mountains have you climbed

What valleys have you fallen into

How many hearts have you broken

How many lies have you told

How many days have been wasted

How many sorrows have been shared

How many promises have been made

How many strangers did you love

 

What mountains have you climbed

What valleys have you fallen into

How many deserts have you roamed

How many times have you been lost

How many friends can you count on

How many enemies still fear you

How many lines need to be written

—to finish this song

    It is a song without end, I believe. Fine poem, Kurt!

    If I close my eyes, I can hear your song, and maybe finish it.

    This is such a beautiful piece that I cannot believe I missed it! It's so deep and makes me think. An unending song. Perfect! Into the faves it goes!
