Talk to me
Make me laugh -
For the darkness creeps in
carrying its ghostly baggage
...
The world seems to be done over
in shades of white and gray.
The sky is white as the ground
and just as cold.
...
Stay Awhile
Talk to me
Make me laugh -
For the darkness creeps in
carrying its ghostly baggage
and refusing to leave.
Random thoughts assail
from all dreary sides.
Talk to me - no more -
Let me live
in the moment
of your endless smile.
Tell me a story;
Stay awhile.
And I promise to
stay myself a bit longer
just to see the ending through.
