Today we challenge ourself - in the deep hours of the night
Dark paints the windows, and change is in the air
The sweltering of the summer nights - august in houston
Steam and texas city smelling
those days are done now and it is October
both the month and the season of my life
the dogs are getting older and we worry about bringing them a new friend
will they live longer than i will?
will i some how accidentally cause pain to one who i love?
can i save my lover and keep him on dry land
or will he drown in the pain of memories forgotten so hard
forgotten hard and cannot remember
how can you fix that cross, the one you can't remember
don't see
yet feel so deeply...
my poor lost love lying here next to me
do you even find peace in your dreams - or do nightmares chase you up the canyons into the depths
of despair
cold
and so alone
sad, right here with me
i hold you in my arms
and you are the void of mewling pain
silently
