"unceaseless" poems
Our past seems like an age ago
A distant and fond memory
An echo of laughter and sadness
That rumbles away down the years
Remember the time that I told you
Of imminent, life changing plans
We discussed the alternative options
And dissected the future at hand
We spoke on the phone for a lifetime
We chatted from dusk until dawn
We solved the world’s problems and issues
We talked about nothing at all
Embracing all my imperfections
You treasured my soul anyway
You cherished ideas and discussion
And valued what I had to say
We’d years of affection and laughter
And burying our sorrows with beers
We’d go walking and talking on days out
And spoke of our innermost fears
But life has a way of reproving
Belief that all time will stand still
Reality comes chasing, unceaseless,
Overtaking our plans and our will
And now we have spouses and babies
And houses and mortgages too
And days just seem to go faster
And time slinks away from our view
Then one day you hear distant echoes
That whisper at you from afar
You listen and **** your ear higher
And slow down, remember, and smile

The rain hits the windscreen
With force and with might
It endlessly bounces
In line of our sight
Our view is restricted
Our senses assaulted
It lashes unceaseless
Then suddenly stops
