last night
a ghost of a life
long passed visited me
axl rose
a bit paunchier
a smile that slipped
across his face a bit more easily
and with a sincerity
that i suppose we sometimes
come to in our age
he had developed a graciousness
and a willingness to
be open that i can't say i remember
from the wild flame haired
blazing tongued
vicious spirit
that he'd been when i was just a kid
i wonder why he chose me
one silly little girl out of a legion
of broken hearts he left in his wake
all the same he
allowed me to make peace with the past
peace with what he'd meant to me
and laid to rest were all the questions
that have been a decade long hang-over
from my life back then
for me he was the soundtrack
to a time when i'd had the world
and never had the sense to realize it
he was there with me when i lost
them all - the friends that were closer than kin
and he was there when i lost the girl i can never become
because of my own stupidity
he hung his head in defeat
watching his power over the world he'd made his own
die as a result of his selfishness
and insecurity
watched as i embraced something
other than self
we two had been so similar then
so self involved
clinging too tightly to a life
that we choked the spirit from
i hope that it hadn't taken him
so long as it took me to realize
where we went wrong
if only dreaming dreams were a way
to transmute the truth
i'd find a way into the dreams of axl rose
to give him the peace
that his visit
brought to me.
