Rust-colored sand

Rust color sand

Clings to the damp grass

Giving appearance of frost

Under the quiet furnace of the sun

making it sparkle like stars

It's a quiet thing

this loneliness

follows me around like a lost kitten

tries to tell me things that

just cant be because they never were

She has been gone for fifty years past

and I don't even remember her name

just grey eyes and her lovely voice

I tread the asphalt like its a prayer

try to recapture all that never...

Waited all these years in silence

Rust-colored sand clings to my heart

colder the days

under the furnace of the sun
