| As I look the last of the light dies away.I lookwatch it creep across my tattoo.The one that always reminds me where I come from.Thoughts of you and my city, my home place, that always seem to form one thing.Heavy.How is it that one dark lost person can come into a life and wipe out all that was there before?An entire life growing up there and somehow 5 long years of you and that is the only vision left.Every place and faceyou.Every corner, club and park benchyou.Every scar and flinchyou.It's been ages since you invaded the private quiet I hold inside.One of the beauties of leaving there I spose.Yes the light is fading into nighttime nowbut earlier I let it in.I let in the light today. |
| I let in the light today.I let it in my window, my room, and into me I think.Strange I would think of you, being that you never brought light..just that dark judging face.The expression that always told the ugly truth, when your mouth would say you loved me. The truth of us and what wasn't.What wouldn't ever be.What couldn't...because I never wanted to just cease being me. Tho I will say I came awfully close.Shame has never been my thing and somewhere along the way I left behind that breakable girl I felt and became a woman I always was.I gave ...because I was a woman and had enough to give.I loved...because I was a woman and that's what we do...and I will continue to do, without you around to drain me and look down on everything.I think it was the contrast that brought you to mind today.I'm happy now and even sitting quiet, I'm really not alone . I think just maybe I've grown some, and maybe this is freedom.I don't know.We'll find out tho.Me and whoever...wants to share this quiet space with me.
