A Play


The memory of our times together
are written on my soul.
years wander by, it seems forever
we had each other to hold.
we laughed, we cried, we forgave
each other for our flaws,
now memories haunt me every day
and heart is raked with claws.

Those times didn’t mean as much to you
as they once did for me.
your heart was never touched like mine,
 from love you chose to flee.
you acted out each love scene
as if it were a play,
took your bows, smiled at me
and then just walked away.

The curtain fell on our love as
the lights all turned blue...
you played your part, broke my heart,
the applause is all you.

 

 

   As the days all go

 

morning comes with sweet surprise,
pale light of earth reborn,
i lay in bed with sad blue eyes,
my love, in dream sojourn.
the ceiling stares down on me,
the floors stiffen for my weight,
it seems a mere eternity
that i lay and contemplate.
was just a moment of my dream
that you were here once more,
will you return if i remain
in dreams that i adore?
or will you vanish once again
as do the days all go,
where misty morning blends again
with evening’s dark shadow?
