My Choice

Tea parties, baptisms, "Beauty and the Beast"
Make up for money, fortune and fame.
This is the comfort zone I've made for myself.
I chose children.

You could borrow a cup of innocence,
But I have only a half cup to spare.
What's lost in me is found in them.
I chose children.

The power of television news is electric.
The information highway's a traffic jam.
I do not live in the despair of the rest of the world.
I chose children.

Worries in a night full of thunder.
I find no easy answers.
Sounds of peace in a night full of stars.
Pisces meets the Aquariuses
In the silence they are safely asleep
On the midnight sky ocean.
One daughter, one son.
I chose children.
