When you're alone.


Poem Artwork

Do you know the cold winter nights,
When the world has gone home,
Taking with it the fuss and the fights,
And you’re on your own?
Do you know...?

I’ll sing my songs that I may recall
Who I really am,
Sing them long and sing them all
For they are all I am.
And I am...

For there are times when the belief goes,
When you’re lost and it shows.
The rent’s unpaid,
The bed’s unmade,
The structures fade,
And it shows.

Let me walk the bare winter streets,
When the cars have gone home,
There’s still time to think and complete,
When you’re on your own.
Do you know...?

For me, a very meaningful and expressive sharing that is familiar somehow. Your verses remind me a little (or perhaps even a lot since I am actually remembering) Simon and Garfunkel's song, "I am a Rock" or something like that. Thank you, Paddy, old chap.☻ Love and peace,

Regis

This is a very haunting write. I remember those winter streets in those faded towns. It's not like that here, and I'm glad because up north, times after Christmas got very dreary indeed.
