Lines
tonite I almost could follow the lines
no matter about coloring within
I was scoring outside
with a blade not as sharp as when I started
But sharp enough
and I wondered what started this cutting up
paper dolls? Jack and jills? Taking a hand-
full of vitamin pills.
Each stroke seemed a stroke to my heart
tho I was just cutting a calender apart.
But there's something coming on another page
Maybe a parting
we seem at that stage.
She does her thing, I do mine
so why this sorrow after all this time?
Have we ever been together
even after all these years?
So I'm cutting up a calendar but am I excising
fears?
That now I'm all used up, time to shift gears
she was always alone and alone she'll remain
she mentioned going separate ways
and I felt the pain
of love never lived just pretended in vain
thinking it's real when I knew long ago
the train had pulled out
saw the red light in the distance
but I'm still standing here
as if I'd had no existence. cockeyed.
