POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
The Gambler
I’m headed down south,
Where the devil can’t find me.
Gonna leave my problems
So far behind me.
I’ll take her picture,
For I will miss her,
The girl I dream of,
The one I love.
I got my whiskey,
And that’s all I need,
While I make my way down,
This lonely road.
Rain clouds above me,
Thick mud below me,
But there’s a fire inside me,
For the one I love.
I’m bound to wander
This lonely highway,
No friends to help me
No place called home.
But still I’ll love her,
No one above her,
My darling beauty,...
Where the devil can’t find me.
Gonna leave my problems
So far behind me.
I’ll take her picture,
For I will miss her,
The girl I dream of,
The one I love.
I got my whiskey,
And that’s all I need,
While I make my way down,
This lonely road.
Rain clouds above me,
Thick mud below me,
But there’s a fire inside me,
For the one I love.
I’m bound to wander
This lonely highway,
No friends to help me
No place called home.
But still I’ll love her,
No one above her,
My darling beauty,...

The Wanderer
These chains won’t let go,
When will I be free?
Banished from the sun,
To a land of misery.
I hurt the ones I love.
And the ones who love me.
Look at what I’ve done,
And what you’ve done to me.
You’ve done to me.
These chains won’t let me go.
Walls won’t let me free.
But how can I be free,
When the jail is inside me?
The man that I’ve become,
Is not who I want to be.
I try to find a way.
But my eyes they cannot see.
They cannot see.
It’s been written in the sand,
And thrown into the sea,
These chains...
When will I be free?
Banished from the sun,
To a land of misery.
I hurt the ones I love.
And the ones who love me.
Look at what I’ve done,
And what you’ve done to me.
You’ve done to me.
These chains won’t let me go.
Walls won’t let me free.
But how can I be free,
When the jail is inside me?
The man that I’ve become,
Is not who I want to be.
I try to find a way.
But my eyes they cannot see.
They cannot see.
It’s been written in the sand,
And thrown into the sea,
These chains...
