Reminder

You may wonder why I continue to
write you. You may wonder why I see you
so vividly in my mind. You are my
greatest memory. You make my heart fly.
I may obsessed, but I will it
my best, for you. You are a perfect fit.
So perfect for me, I couldn't believe,
how I didn't see months before I'd leave.

For now that I think to November,
back in time, where I vaguely remember.
I noticed you there, so quiet and so cute.
I couldn't say anything, was zipped and mute.
So long you sat, so long I sat watching.
So much time, every second fading.

I saw you there, in the halls, to and fro,
up and down, side to side. The time to grow
up was then. After the dance. After the
duet together. I'm nobody the
kids want to be, I can't be Superman.
But the song, the both of us, yes we can
bring ourselves together. I knew it was
you. You are the one. You are her, because
you've seen me. You were with me. You know me.
That is something other haven't seen.

What would it take, for me to persuade you
back my way? Dost thou want us back too?

Washboard Blues

My favourite saying of late Is that I wanna cry. The world has been crumbling around The people The state of affairs The disbelief. I say the words Jokingly But there's a piece of me That would kindly accept A tear... Or two. There have been more days Than less That I could use a reset button. I would start it all again, There are times where I regret Everything. If I wanted to live with no regrets I probably could have done more I probably could have said more I should have meant more. Morbidity Mortality Time... All things weighing me down. There's this sudden end It's coming soon Sooner for some Not soon enough for others But it's coming. If I was to go right now Away Gone Left it all behind... I don't want anyone to think of me After the fact. I don't think many will Some might A passing glance Something to do But I'll be gone Somewhere more To where I'm supposed to be. Africa Asia Europe Or Beyond. I haven't quite decided Yet But I will.

Snowy Interval

Our winter is right around the corner And the thought takes me back To when we found ourselves Last time around In the coldest of days. Even in those harshest of elements In the coldest of all the months I couldn't feel the chill Because between your smile and your words They were the best of days. And just like the unpredictable Alberta weather The storms rolled in I tried to stand my ground Withstand the worst of what it could throw Until I found the peace to know the storm was me. The summer months were devastating The air was dry The sun was unrelenting It was a record year But the chill in the empty hole was all I knew. The leaves have been falling awhile The mind wanders when unchecked Smelling the weather changing Has the heart reeling For another one of those great snowy intervals.

Not Yet

I'm trying to resist It shouldn't really happen I don't even know for sure. It's a good thing Not knowing keeps me from falling Too far from too much.
