ONLY HUMAN

I am only human

I have made mistakes

I have hit brick walls

I have taken a fall

I am only human

My beliefs are not fake

I am not on the take

I am not on the make

I am only human

I want to see

I want to be free

I want to be me

I am only human

I want to run a mile

All the while

Yet also smile

I am only human

A complex personality

Dealing with reality

Accompanied by obscurity

I am only human

Dealing with conditionality

Residing in duplicity

Loving life's complicity

I am alive

I breathe, I smile

I cry, I feel

I touch your heart

I am only human

STRUMMING AWAY

Strumming away in false hope

wondering if I am going to cope

In tune with my inner feelings

Yet in despair and reeling

Life is what it is; pure reality

Downgraded by relative obscurity

Measured by a laugh and smile

and movement of the mind's dial

Worry brings me down with a flurry

My mood can dip in a hurry

Yet I face up to the truth

via the pretence of being aloof

Strumming away until I have the beat

and can face external heat

I deal with reality all the while

by being one of the rank and file
