Shadows fall across the fields where we used to lay
Looking to the heavens
giving names to constellations that didn't exist
feeling the need to create something we could call our own
laughing like children who don't understand the danger they're in.
The storms blew in swiftly from the west.
We just closed our eyes and slow danced to The Moody Blues.
For an hour or two, we were gods
and there's nothing you could say to change the way I feel about you now.
It's been years now
and the ruts in this road remain
I'm still trying to put the pieces together.
The wind chimes play their haunting melody to these empty fields
and tonight, there are no stars in the summer sky.
As the water rose above her head
she closed her eyes and thought of home
a peaceful place so full of life
from room to room she'd often roam
The smell of supper on the stove
The curtains moving with the breeze
The sound of laughter from the yard
beneath the autumns maple trees.
And as the water filled her lungs
she thought back to another time
A place in darkness filled with light
Without reason. Without rhyme.
Where color swirled in pools of air
and life went on without a care.
As the water rose above her head
she closed her eyes and thought of home
a peaceful place so full of life
from room to room she'd often roam
The smell of supper on the stove
The curtains moving with the breeze
The sound of laughter from the yard
beneath the autumns maple trees.
And as the water filled her lungs
she thought back to another time
A place in darkness filled with light
Without reason. Without rhyme.
Where color swirled in pools of air
and life went on without a care.
And as her body slowly sank
She thought no more.
Two out of two! I like your style of writing... this could be a chapter from my life, I almost drowned when I was three, our car went backwards into a river...
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
but you said you didn't want to be in a relationship with anyone. do your lies ever stop? do you even know what is the truth? you could have been honest. trust me...i could have handled it and didn't believe most of your bullshit anyway.
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
At first I thought it was bad when there was an overwhelming amount of Creed and Nickelback on the work radio...but at least I heard PJ every so often. Now they decided to use Pandora and it's all Panic at the Disco and Plain White Tees... LORD HELP ME!

do you ever think of me?
my bloody winter rose
there can be no other
my wintertime rose
i'll see you on my grave
my wintertime rose
