Every Falling Petal Is A Gunshot

A Boy With Roses

Every fading memory is a montage                                                                                      

Dead moths on the window sill                                                                                      

Every poets old shoes                                                                                                    

Are ancient remnants of the past                                                                                    

As dead as a skull 

 

We were underwater                                                                                                      

Trying to escape the bad luck                                                                          

Bells shatter to dust                                                                      

In the past and the future

 

Our scars are reminders of who we are                                                                        

Glints in fire                                                                                                                      

The restless ache leaves me                                                                                        

Wistful and longing for more                                                                                            

But I feel okay for a while.

    Those glints in the fire show that there will be better times to be had, may they be with you.
