In his 'Advice to the Young Poet,' William Carlos Williams says, 'All our efforts as writers and as men must be to release the enchained dragon within us.' I have found this inspiring throughout the course of my life. I nod to the saying in my song, 'Poised to Soar' -- you can find lyrics and more on http://www.benbruce.com, the official site for acoustic rock by singer and songwriter Ben Bruce.

Never Had to Try

(Posted to Songs by Ben Feb 21, 11:05 PM)

… I tried to fly my love across the sky
That spanned between us so blue
But I never had to try … lovin’ you …

I tried to write you letter but the ink bled through
Tried to call to the heavens, get my song to you
I tried to fly my love across the sky
That spanned between us so blue
But I never had to try … lovin’ you.

And I never had to try for a love I could not get …
And I’ll never have to cry for a true love that I never met …
And I’ll never have to drive over the rainbow …
And I’ll never have to find another pot of gold …

I tried to call you on the telephone, but the line would not go through
I tried to sit down and meditate, conjure a vision of you
I tried to fly, my love across the sky
That spanned between us so blue
But I never had to try … lovin’ you.
