Time Heals

Loren smiled thinking of AJ's endeavor

To keep her safe said with such fervor

She knew she'd have to be more clever

If her relationship with brother

she chose to sever


If only he would understand

She was meant for something

far more grand

U.B. checked her ankle.

"Can you stand?"


Loren tried

But all hoped died

And soon as she added weight

She stumbled.

"Just great!"


"All things heal with time,"

Dr. Well encouraged.


"So they say,"

Loren said discouraged.


"I may have just the thing."

He wrapped up her ankle

And handed her something.


"These will help you get around."


She put the crutches to the ground

She took a tentative step.

"You think they'll help?"


Loren smiled, "You bet!"


She went to the hotel

She grabbed her guitar

Time to get her life moving

Long over due by far


She got to the Saloon

Walked up to the bar

And said to Crooked Smile

"Care if I sing awhile?"


Crooked Smile shrugged

The crowd was starting to grow

He guessed it couldn't hurt

To give them a show


He waved to the stage

Loren felt the thrill

Of something about to happen

Still...


She took the steps gingerly

Pulled up a stool

And poured out her heart

In song about

Being love's fool
