I walked down a
dusty corner
of my mind
tonight

where you sit in

black and white

almost dead

I need your hands
your medicine
for my
stale soul

where are you?

how sad time is
when it
shoves me
into the next day

against my will

Yes the days go forward whether you want them to or not...we all have dusty corners we revisit in the lonely hours before dawn

the march of time keeps in step with only itself, those who can't keep up are trampled, those to far ahead usually alone.
Very Nice.
