Far, far from the truth, the lies tie the tongue in knots among the false memories; and there certainty is placed in-between the pieces, And who am I to say I am someone else. I remember my home Or do I But considering these thoughts; coated in dust be older than the fresher wounds-- each struggling against the other and in the breathless moment I recall; I promised to be the hero that would come for you. Those stars billowing calamity, the moon just hung overlooking my helpless heart waiting to be told; Is first love really that hard when words don’t come, Then you came a little on the late side-- but still I was there waiting wasn’t I? And still I am here but an older man inside. Unheard the magic swells into silence, the ringing of confusion ascends again; the half-thoughts become busted words-- and from the elder heights of the beauty seen from overlooking the places we have been, your perfume still lingers in those places-- pulsing through the first-born memories and be it pure that I follow the scent. For years I wanted to be something greater someone with respect; long enough to stand Therefore I left and followed a dream, leaving another dream behind—you! And still god murmurs and places you in my way-- I guess the pairing was honestly good intended but holy we are friends—living two different lifes’. Still I have death upon my shoulders seeing only her I found after you the water still beneath my fingernails-- forming into irremovable dirt reminds me of blood-stained hands, But she once said forgiveness is not a sin; forgiveness sets us free, sometimes the person you need to ask forgiveness from is yourself—echoing—yourself. |

I sure like this one more than the others you have written...this one is down-to-earth, I can relate to this. Guess I never was much into Shakespeare and such. Bravo on this one! It touched my heart. |
