Too Many, Too Much

There was too much holding

And too much cuddling

Then there was self scolding

And lack of self control

There was too many

And there was too much

There was so plenty

And yet never enough

There were too many kisses

And there were too many hugs

Then there were too many misses

And then nothing at all

There was too many

And there was too much

Now there aren’t any

No hugs, no kisses, no touch

To think that we could

Maybe have had it all

To think that we should

Maybe have gone through the fall

But there was too many

And then there was too much

It was too close for comfort

All those fears and such

Life is so uncertain

Especially when we fall

Something about committing

Makes fools and cowards of us all
