When the lights go out.
What are you afraid of?
A unknown love.
A simple touch means so much.
When your down on your knees, hands in your face.
Thinking of all the mistakes you have made.
This unending parade.
Every ones marching on without you.
You and their business has concluded.
One day, one night and they are gone.
I love to stay but this is not where I belong.
To remember all their songs.
An impossibility.
Why does it always have to be so wrong?
It's not the life for me.
I still hear you say.
The ghost of your absence brings such heart ache.
It's so hard to try not to feel.
The corrosion of the mighty steel.
Rusted and rotted out.
A hole so slowly made.
Part of the ages.
It comes in stages.
Each a separate embrace.
Always worst then last.
Creating the past.
Fill a thirst by taste.
It becomes a race.
I'll see you at the top.
As it's better place.
Is all this a waste?
A experiment of the mind.
With a sawed off 10 gauge shotgun I take aim.
Blowing away the distance of time.
