Outside the night is slowly sweeping past
My heart will take no rest before the dawn
All my faith is surely dying fast
I believe my love has traveled on

Roughest Draft

You know we can't go on this way
And now so many years
The stolen guns and gasoline
Your fire perserveres

Recall mid-way when from your eyes
The Devil got away
Where I lay long since mesmerized
Now secrets on display

Never us to run and hide
Those times we were lost
They swore our love was suicide
We'd never weighed the cost

Search heated miles for peaceful shade
Hold hands through a velvet masquerade
No witnesses beside
I dressed as your enemy
You my princess bride

Fragment

It was exactly late at night
When first appeared the faint Moonlight
It steady rose up through the trees
To touch the water in the breeze
And as an hour slowly past
It's fullness showed itself at last

Advice

The trick is finding your good name
Inside a pool of doubt and blame

Brought from a notebook pile with free writing exercises that go back around five years full of drafts, fragments, lines I liked and dice scores.
