evening prayer

you remind me of a day long gone
a song i can't remember how to sing
i'll write a memoir across fragile bone
reminiscing the intensity of youth
you laugh, little boy
you laugh yourself to sleep
when you dream you only scream
you lack the love you need
you crawled home with love poems in tow
they set fire to the memory you held dear
tonight when you dream, they paint the nightmare
plant the morning's seed, the horror disappears

About Me

I write not to make sense but to lose it.
