Too Long In the Tooth

Too Long In the Tooth

 

Looking back,

at what the future

might hold

for us both, I note

there was

something wrong

after all,

wasn’t there  ..

I could feel it in

the tone of your

broken voice ..

So pray, tell how

are you here now ..

Since I was told

you died long ago ..

Some time

after we parted,

but before

we had said all our

final goodbyes ..

And although we

each have the same

journey to take ..

Then let this be my

solemn

and eternal truth ..

While I am

so very desperate

for a closure babe ..

I am now,

too long in the tooth ..
