5 years ago
or maybe 10
i didn't know
what was ta' be then...

old accelarators
old negotiatoors
old arbitratoors

i couldn't see
they were beyond me
where was i then?
i didn't know then
i'd be where i am
damn

i wished i knew
i do
i wish i knew
what i would do
still ain't got a clue

there was you
then there you were ain't
hell i feal faint
no saint i be
i know history
i remember a memory
that was you and me

5 years ago
where did we go
or even 10
back then

what were the words we heard
what did we say
to 1 another
you & me
we found a poetry
in the unheard
we said
layin' in our bed
as we read
each other
so...
5 years ago
you disappered
or was it 10
way back then

i don't know...

what was it back then
5 or 10
back when...
what was then

and what is now?
somehow
it's yesterday
anyway...
it ain't tomorrow
it only feals like today

5 & dime's
they all rhyme
the same
5's & 10's
back when's
never rhyme
with this time

old love's & new
what do ya' do
at the 5 & dime
old poet's like me
we try ta' see
a rhyme

five years ago...or even ten
i remember then
aannnnnnd so 2night
i write
as the day becomes night

5 & 10's
i loved you then
and i love now

wow
ain't love a bitch
a scratch ya'can't never itch

years ago
i love let go
but ta' me it know
only you
what do i do
i don't know

5 & dime
happens
all the time
a poet
in search of his rhyme


five years ago...or even ten
what then?
