Dig Deep

 

 

 

how does i feel to love

somebody that doesn’t love

you?

like’s like playing  a game of

hide and seek –

their love is hidden and you

have to go in and seek it out.

 

it’s like digging for clams in

the desert

or

digging a hole in the sand

and filling it with all

the water of the ocean –

 

it’s like counting all the

stars on a clear night

or

like waiting for a bus

in the middle of lake michigan –

 

it’s like mining for

gold in a field of

oklahoma red clay

or

like selling air conditioners

in alaska.

 

to sum it all up –

it’s like hell.
