Let me out,
the veil grows thicker,
darker, slicker,
a slippery slope
with little hope
of resolution-
the solution
shadowed by shouts,
riddled with doubts
of survival
as the dim light,
once so bright
slips quietly through
greedy fingers as you
and I stare in disbelief,
fearing no relief
from our sorrow
we wait for the morrow,
or the next,
or the next,
praying each day
will show us the way
to remeber the love
we were all made of-
what this life is about-
or
let me out!!
How I miss these guys. Yes, I was a huge, poster pasting, letter writing, devoted fan. #donnyosmond. 💕

Very beautifully done. A Donny fan? I would never have guess. Not judging (they were excellent performers).

I am a multifaceted gem. Lol let’s just say there is a small bit of music I don’t care for. Those groups and singers found in the dog eared pages of Tiger Beat magazine saw me through some very tough teen years Dan. It’s hard to imagine how hugely successful The Osmonds were and how quickly forgotten.
