"I am Thinking About You"

cji
3/l6/99

Verse 1
*******

Thus to know why you would
risk a friendship still in blossom
while meekly I sit waiting on the wind
to take me far away from anywhere
yet you came to me when I needed
you or a friend the most and I was angry.

Verse 2
********

Yet you still loved me anyway to say
what needed to be said to keep me
and lead me to the path towards forever
when others would just give advice
you took the action to call and offer love
compassion and most, what was needed to know.

Verse 3
********

While here I sit wondering about you
in your plight of the unknown wondering
should I too intervene and give love
as unconditional as you my beloved friend
risked all for me, why am I so hesitant
to risk the who I am now for you?

"I'm Confused"
C.J. Ingerson
2/28/99

Verse 1
*******

Went to church today
trying my best to obey.
Yet couldn't understand
how to be a humble man.

Verse 2
********

The lessons were again on living
being both gentle and forgiving.
Yet then we are told to teach
worse even to be able to preach.

Verse 3
********

Well I guess it is about that time
I need to figure where is the line
between my being just humble,
contrite and confidence not jumble.

Verse 4
********

But each Sabbath day I don't know
if I'm further ahead or failing to show.
So each church meeting I come on time
to keep trying confused to toe the line.
