#yesterdays
shouts empty out into whispers
-indelible memories scream to be heard
an echo of who you once were.
gone today is all your yesterdays
but they whisper in your mind
-the wishing and the struggles
deep wihin your core.

Well, hey there!
I remember you, Christmas.
You’re the sights, sounds and tastes
of my dearest yesterdays.
Your hugs and laughter
have not ghostly passed
they are part of us - we’re imprinted.
Let’s dance and laugh at obsidian oblivions
celebrating as one
until time itself comes undone.

A song for this:

Today I am broken,
But I am still the person I came as.
I am still strong and I still have strength left to give,
I know you liked to see me crumbling apart,
Left in ruins while trying to find my beating heart.
At least it’s how I felt,
Today is a better day than any to grow a little more.
To repair and replace,
As I rebuild the castle inside of me.

Time sits in the golden dusk of the field,
gnawing away the days.
Hungrily it consumes our lives,
the shaded moments that didn't count
or failures to strive.
Extracting and devouring even the thickest
honey of happiness from the soul's hive.
Break away memories from the edge of the day,
crumbs left behind make our bellies ache.
For the non- memories, things we wish we had done.
Thinking there was a million more sun's.
The echoes of all that was left unsaid, a lead burden,
if only a mind could be read.
I must not waste a moment of time,
Live like tomorrow you will perish and die.
In time, do not confide.
Just kindle you heart and it's wild blazing fire.
Be alive in the moment, free your desire.

I dream of yesterdays gone
Where laughter is heard and love everywhere
Letting me wander half-memories in a happy haze
Dry eyes
Warm cheeks
And in an instant it vanishes
Still smiling
Wake to cruel reality
And onto everything fading brain clutches uselessly
As if pursuing Eldorado or some other impossible treasure

I’m still running on
Yesterday’s priorities;
Seeking prizes that,
If I only I took the time
To think things through,
Revaluate my situation Properly,
Don’t really matter to me anymore.
I’m still caught up in the
Want of yesterday,
Driven by desires
Well past their sell by Date.
The insignificance of Bygone yearnings
Haunt my todays
Until I exorcize them
Screaming
Into faded memory,
File them away
Marked ‘Insignificant’,
‘No longer useful’.

If I had a quarter for every time I wished
For you and I to take a trip to yesterday
I don't know exactly how rich I would be
But it would add up to a lot of change
I don't know what I'd do with that cash
But I would spend every cent on you
Doing whatever you like till it's gone
Or till there's nothing left to do
Or we could leave where we are for good
Pack up all our things today and leave
I could take your hand and whisk you far from here
To a place our tomorrows will always be happy
I will say farewell to bad memories
Never look that direction again
Like arrows we will fly toward the future
Our time in this small town will end
Presently I have your heart to hold
And although time may never give me a replay
I am too lucky to be nostalgic
Done wishing for yesterdays

The days were dark and grey,
My mind deep in thoughts of sorrows and pain lay,
You promised you won't leave me at all,
But once again,you were not there at the time of my fall.
I laughed the most with you,
I cried the most with you,
I wish before trusting you I knew,
Cheaters like you are not very few.
You took away everything I had with me,
My smile,my happiness and my glee,
We almost ended up as unknown peeps,
No more mattering our griefs.
The wind blew,
I no more know you,
I shall leave to find the real me,
To bring back my faded identity.

the mule rushed me
it was an bull fight
all the mexicans were running
the wall was an high trump card
he's theory were madness
what have you with me
the boy cried
opposite
the
scent
of the wind
chimes began to blow from the northern corners
sky will light for terrors eyes
seas to be mistaken for time
what heat and destruction shall await
is it i with an wand of middle
speak to me through webbed deviate
what is this child you have more into me
that my womb be paroled
what season of winter have we been caught in
ride on me through this grief
ride on me through this rain
pad me the cloud we set you on
for in order to pass me
it can not be done
from
one side
?

Do you realize you haunt me?
You haunt me when I shower,
Because I can't seem to scrub off the grime you left.
You haunt me when I listen to music,
Because you played music the whole time.
You haunt me with each step I take,
Because you once told me you loved watching me walk.
Do you realize you haunt me?
You haunt me when I smile,
Because you said my smile is what drew you towards me.
You haunt me when I love,
Because you told me you "owned" me now.
You haunt me when I breathe,
Because you told me I'd never forget you as long as I was breathing.
Do you realize you haunt me?
You haunt me when I pass a white house,
Because that's the color of the house we were in.
You haunt me when I see a green door,
Because that's the door color of the room I was locked in.
You haunt me when I try to be passionate with someone,
Because you wouldn't take no for answer.

"once upon a times"
so many memories
wistful treasures
like tumbleweeds
blown .... by....
slipping through your fingers
yesterdays
gone by
like dust
in the wind....
