Fading Pictures
Friday, December 29th, 2006memories of a careful mind
fragile in the subconscious
subtle warnings all around
deep concentration of a focus
-
tighten my grip to nothingness
sharing life with a bouncing echo
holding on to an alternate existence
a familiarity i long to call home
-
my foolish heart has rendered useless
every dawn a lethargic hue
an empty shell of timeless space
my loneliness a pathetic muse
-
dark clouds above fondly gather
wetness slowly dissolving the imprint
inevitably everything disappears
nothing allowed to be kept within
-
the moon in a sky of darkened blue
quiet reflections of another rhyme
all that’s left of me and you
are these fading pictures in my mind
