before the time
of our demise,
we lived in shallow places.

where the pain
of heartache lies
between the frozen spaces.

that once held hope,
fervent desire.
the seeds of love in bloom.

the embers that
could build a fire
that would inundate our room.

before the time
of our demise,
before we failed to learn,

below the surface
of our lies,
a fire
cannot burn.

We grew together,
you and I.
when the soft, sweet scent
of Spring was in the air.

You,
resplendent in petals,
me
with a full head of hair.

The horizon was just
a step in our journey.

A place that held
the secrets of life,
secrets we longed
to embrace.

And then one day,
you lost your crown,
all your petals
had fallen down.

And somehow I
had lost my hair.
yet, that horizon
was still sitting there.

with it’s secrets.
secrets we
would never embrace

as the cold hand of
Winter
had taken it’s place.

I weep for thee,
for what might have been.
ah, my love,
you were a beauty…

5-star-songs:

“Lay Lady Lay” – BOB DYLAN

A song so simple and warm and direct it’s hard to believe Bob Dylan wrote it, and even harder to believe that’s him singing it. But he did and he is, and we’ll never know if the song would have sounded just as phenomenal coming from anybody else. The contrast between how light and effortless this feels and how portentous Dylan songs usually are gives it a stealth kind of weight – getting into big brass beds with people who love us is a pretty inviting proposition to begin with, but here it sounds like an even more profound reprieve from the tribulations of daily life.

There’s a huge, uncaring world out there. These blissful moments are rare. This song doesn’t just document one; it makes the moment feel fragile and unlikely and worth treasuring.

we luv moms

taken
stolen
not free
to give
unable to
take
what you
need to live

time works
its magic
against all belief
stealing life
freely given
like a common thief

the ticking clock
the second hand
pass, though
we don’t understand

what is lost
will not be found

as lifes carousel
spins freely
around

thunder holds the thought
of midnight in your room
heartbeats echo loudly
ensconced inside this tomb
where love
has gone to die

whispered voices speak
as if somebody cares
yet words of love and tenderness
keep falling on deaf ears
no thought was ever given
to the how or why
lightning no longer flashes
where love
has gone to die

winds of suffocation
roar above my head
as pelting rains of anger
drown us in this bed

no one stops to think
what this is all about
the fire of love and lust
has suddenly gone out

you lie silently beside me
I hear your mournful sigh
we never thought
that we’d end up
where love
has gone to die
