like shadows at noon disappearing
the legacy of common men
must fade with passing time
...
I heard it too,
I heard the thunder,
and the whispered wind,
and the raindrops like a clock,
...
a field of flowers speaks to me
a muted memory from the past
when summer was a child's bright toy
that seemed to fade and flee too fast
...
between the inspiration
and the final act
a metronome keeps ticking
...
I can tell by the look in her eyes
that she's only talking to me
she gives me the news every day
I don't care if you disagree
...
beyond the bridge a secret spot
provides a place for boys to fish
and silent paths that time forgot
where lovers go to stroll and kiss
...
something about the moon
can tint my mood to blue
for the color of the night
is a strange familiar hue
...
I am stranded in the universe
my dreams became a wretched curse
I heard that space and time can never end
I have to say I tried
...
many emotions crowd my mind
I know that death is coming
yet death is but a shadow
...
