Hey fool she is singing this for you

You wrote this for her mother

Watched a replication of a

Life long gone

A voice as pure

As one looking

Her father gone

Her brother

About to fill

The hole

Flag draped

Ready for honor

Fold hers to hold

We stood at attention as the ground eat another son

In the eyes I should see me

Heart of measure

Those do not understand

The pleasures of life

In reality

We walk

In our dreams

Poet I stand with a face to the wind

Back to the sun

Every tribute

Steal guitar run

In a corner I sit

Looking back on a child singing my song

Heart poured into proportions to me

Lover willing to keep a live

Words that long died

My love is tested as the night takes

Deposits devil once again to page

Ghosts of youth fall to shadows

Pieces of me die words come

Passion sought just a lie

Eyes beg heart melts into mine

So warm the feel upon skin

Alone in a corner with age poured in small glasses

Candle light dims to shadows to powerful to over come

Silhouettes of wonder come from every pore left open

Words practices in years blend to perfect verse

Expectation left on napkin stained with booze

Time takes it toil on eyes gray angel sleeps

Drunk walks away last time in pride cold

Everybody looking for someway

Yet I am still looking for someway

Out, alone as always, keyboard sings
