Never Ever After

Folder: 
A Day In The Life

Dazzled and frazzled...

At the very least confused.

Lost for a moment now fleeting

And bruised.

Take in the wind, take it all

As your guide.

Fear not the hunter

Who's come for your hide.

Look past the shadows

Which fall into place.

Slowly defining

The pain in your face.

And try to find comfort

With all that is known

The carelessly whispering

Thoughts on the phone.

The "run-for-your-life"...

"It's Alive!"...screams of play.

Just hiding the truth

For revival some day.

And the drip-drip trickle

Of the passing of days,

Reminiscent of summer

Now lost in the haze.

Reaching here, looking there,

Dreaming out of the box

And the mad circle feed

In the school of hard knocks.

Ah, its bliss, it will pass

Just a kiss and I'll soar

Fade to black in your eyes

Fall to mute on the floor.

And the never ever after

Of what cannot be

Takes its toll on the pulse

Of the dream that I see.

For in loss there is pause

For a moment to breathe

But, to live with the fire

Is to truly believe.
