A fading light
As shadows grow across once bright day
The flicker of a guttered candle
incandescence once bright, now dimmed to passing
...
From hand to hand
Gentle touch moving silence
Held in this leaky vessel before moving on
To something, what not known
But here once, part and whole
...
She thinks of me, she says, as she lies in his arms
Closing her eyes as his lips are on her neck
...
She waits for you across the river
In the soft untrammelled field
...
Tell me your secrets
Tell me your lies
...
I still feel your ghost in all the places we used to haunt
clinging nostalgia dragging me back there
...
Ashes spreading through water
swirls of grey upon grey of different shades
...
Kiss me in the pale light of the half moon
on this cool winter's night
...
The trick, she says,
is to throw yourself to the ground
and miss
...
Walking down Fourth Street from your apartment
heading towards Pico and the long trip back
My head full of thoughts i shouldn't have
My heart full of wants I can't let go
...
