Broken Cords Poem by Peter S. Quinn

I remember love songs now
That I thought were gone
Feelings confusing somehow
Running through on and on
To the date of nowhere now

Every waiting is for this
To give time and to recollect
World seem often just a miss
In its gathering of neglect
To those feelings in all of this

Many times are broken cords
Shattered ways and blackboards

Try to catch what you may find
In the moments going by
So much still on your mind
From the yesterday's goodbye
Hard to hold and in combined

Magic ride in today’s world
So much still to confide
Through emotions some hurled
In its going away tide
Throughout times that abide

Listening to the echo ebb
Motions steering down street
In their remembering web
Everything to the going beat
From a turn and to its step

Every waiting is for this
To give time and to recollect
World seem often just a miss
In its gathering of neglect
To those feelings of all of this

Magic ride in today’s world
So much still to confide
Through emotions some hurled
In its going away tide
Throughout times that abide

By mind-set and their trance
By mind-set and their trance
