The leafs fall upon your grey
To me it’s all then fade away
Once we finally stalled, the miles couldn’t speak
Time is the only thing I fear in doses that are weak

Farewells capture the hollow of my heart
Get well attached with measures broken apart
Dares that laugh for books having to end
Our time is short my lovely friend

In storms of geography and pencil fading
In poetry’s tears and the woman I am dating
Every tic is of the essence
Every line pays a price
After it all crashes, what will survive?

Signs to wrong directions paint your face
Unspoken love songs fill the drains
Attached to her letter was what left her to cry
Oh how a life without you, I’d rather die

Romance dripped over cigarettes and wine
A poet’s trip on escaping crime
The bars are but windows to the miles ahead
Longing for her touch awake in my bed


Whispers that break silence are a timeless curse
Lovers dancing to violins on a sketchy curb
The pointless picture is within her flame
A love in my veins that only she can tame
