K - Ci & Jojo - All My Life

by-Matthew F. Blowers III

Life is an island
we are often stranded on,
surrounded by
oceans of loneliness,
after being set adrift
by the voyages of necessity,
our home far away
and now deeply cherished,
where once we were
sometimes sick of being home,
but now we find ourselves 
simply homesick.

But Islands can
be a paradise
if we strive to adjust,
to a temporary disruption
of what once was norm,
They are full of
natives to befriend,
and many tasks
to distract us,
that in the long run,
will allow us to buy
and build our own homes,
Places our children can
cherish and long for,
when they too are set adrift
over the seas of time.

Is it not testimony to
how wonderful your family is,
to be single and free,
and making your own way,
and yet hunger for that
familiar gathering place
but the love is still there,
still warm and near,
even though miles separate you
from the smiles of your youth.

My child home is gone now,
torn down and made
into a golf course,
I often go back and sit
on the ninth hole
where my old house,
used to stand
filled with five kids
and two parents,
who gave us as much love
as poverty could grant
in the projects that
we called our neighborhood.
My homestead became Atlantis,
just another island,
sinking beneath the
rolling tides of time.

But I still have endless
memories on which to sail,
back to the open arms
of my long dead mother,
back to the toothless
grin of my dying dad,
And in their eyes, I see
a homesickness too,
but our next mansion
lies beyond this realm,
somewhere on an island
above us, far from reach,
as we live out our lives
marooned from those we love,
by the courses fate has
charted for us to follow.

This too shall pass,
and you will visit often,
Summers will be your
trusty old room,
filled with echoes
of glorious days past,
welcoming you back
with open arms

Life is an island

Lyrics:

"Send My Love (To Your New Lover)"

This was all you, none of it me
You put your hands on, on my body and told me
You told me you were ready
For the big one, for the big jump
I'd be your last love everlasting you and me
That was what you told me

I'm giving you up
I've forgiven it all
You set me free, oh

Send my love to your new lover
Treat her better
We've gotta let go of all of our ghosts
We both know we ain't kids no more
Send my love to your new lover
Treat her better
We gotta let go of all of our ghosts
We both know we ain't kids no more

I was too strong you were trembling
You couldn't handle the hot heat rising (rising)
Baby I'm so rising
I was running, you were walking
You couldn't keep up, you were falling down (down)
Mmm there's only one way down

I'm giving you up
I've forgiven it all
You set me free-ee

Send my love to your new lover
Treat her better
We gotta let go of all of our ghosts
We both know we ain't kids no more
Send my love to your new lover
Treat her better
We've gotta let go of all of our ghosts
We both know we ain't kids no more

If you're ready, if you're ready
If you're ready, I am ready
If you're ready, if you're ready
We both know we ain't kids no more
No, we ain't kids no more

I'm giving you up
I've forgiven it all
You set me free-ee

Send my love to your new lover
Treat her better
We've gotta let go of all of our ghosts
We both know we ain't kids no more
Send my love to your new lover
Treat her better
We gotta let go of all of our ghosts
We both know we ain't kids no more
