Vouch for me

My life is free

Take my heart

(It's a good start)



But don't take my words

They're only to be heard

On tuned strings in mind

... Whatever else you find



Just share the vibes

Enjoy feelings inside

Sing them with intent

But don't then re-invent



Enjoy them as they are

Play them on the stars

You can have their goals

But - take not my soul ....



- Tristram
