Dave Elgee

Yesterday seems so long ago,
tomorrow so far away.
Now is what I'd die for.
For I am a swallow
...

You left on the midnight train,
bound for the arms of another,
and I was sad.
Not for the hurt you caused me,
...

Born of affection,
wrought by affliction,
as holy as the law,
and as true as the blade
...

Each tear that I shed
is a new and different emotion.
Each drop is a complexed reflection
of my thoughts, my fears, and my loves.
...
