you
Can you still see me

Standing in this dark room

Talking to the memory of you

Your hand is back in my hair

The love is still there

Just like you never left

But that is not my life

I couldn't sit pretty

To let you create a pretty lie

And now I'm here and for all I know..

You may have died.

I cough words
onto a page,
and hold it up to the world.
They call it art, they call it poetry.
That was last night
when the Generals told us
everything was going to be alright

one hundred plus years
and the tears still drop
the wars don't stop

I think the Generals were fibbing.
