WHY DO SALMON SWIM UPSTREAM
I know the touch of love
and the passion of an embrace
for I am fire
burning embers of life's desire
I don't want to feel
your sad caresses.
I don't want your voice
to speak its tears
or your embraces hold my fears..
let your heart tell me
tomorrow
and hold me close
when tomorrow never comes.
I am fire
I am passion
I know the touch of love.
don't let me see my dying
in your eyes
let me live illusion's lies.

Am on my way this morning for a new series of lower spinal infusions to ease the pain. I also chose to have surgery to alleviate kidney problem. The risk of going under is worth it. No surgery for PD-I wouldn't make it off the table.
