dusk arising

yeardrops

thoughts are easy,
thoughts are just the easy part
we are thinking beings after all
but what does it all mean
when surprises come at you
out of the dark
bringing back something
you thought had been put away, 
something taken from you
lost a long, long time ago along the way
a part of you that died
doing something that you loved
oh that lost time is never found again
and so you sit, telling yourself
you don\'t need loving  arms
but who are you trying to kid
for so long, maybe too long
so scared to be hurt again
you hide away
putting it all away
for something else to do
like watching movies
and trying
to wash those yeardrops away
