She stalks the night
dress too tight
waiting for yesterday's song

Her hair is dark
she lights the spark
of every man ever, now gone.

In coloured dreams
her sorrow streams
a past can't help but be wrong.

She whispers goodbye,
can't say she didn't try.
from this, it's time to move on.

This is very good snacks! It made me feel her sadness and lonliness.

Thanks Denise. This was actually written about a person I know who completed suicide. I am glad you sensed the sadness there. chris

I'm sorry to hear that snacks. I also have known people who have committed suicide. It's devastating. It's such an irreversible solution to a most often temporary problem.
How sad.
