Sitting in my armchair,
Thinking about this wine,
No one wants to understand why,
I'm drinking all the time..

You don't make sense,
There is no sense at all.
I doubt you'll be here to catch me,
When I finally fall.

Stars die in the silence,
Of my lonely life,
Constellations always spinning, spinning,
Drowning in my nocturnal strife.

Heaven sends me no promises,
I can hear your soul's lonely call,
It don't make no sense,
There is no sense at all.

Our broken dreams never really started,
They blossomed for a short while, then died,
We held each other close,
Realising our mistakes as we cried.

And still I sit in my old armchair,
Thinking about you and this wine,
No one cares to understand why,
I'm drinking all the time.

Do you still feel it?
Is your soul still mourning me?
You were my sovereign of the spirit too you know,
And I'm damned if I can let go!

So I dissolve into my fantasy world again,
A world of spiritual awakening,
Devoid of any pain,
But know my heart is always yours for the taking.

I see you sitting in your armchair,
As I still sit in mine,
And no one understands why,
We are drinking all the time...

CHEERS!!

Hi Sweetie,

Well you played wonderfully with the imagery in this one, and I know those feelings can be profoundly heavy and make no sense at all as to why someone would have to edure them in the first place.

Love, Cerenity

I could really relate to this one. In fact, a lot of feelings it brought... such pain it evoked... also longing... and regret. Thank you for sharing such a truly profound piece of writing.

I agree, you brought the feelings out so well. A little too close to home for me but well done!
