darkness does not pass suddenly nor does the light surrounding it though her love was a shadow i reticently remember hints of a star
the way mom and aunt kim would get… when the video would come on mtv i thought “that’s the life for me” singing for the working class
illuminated with the yellowish-ora… parked alone now waiting to be driven away by the last man at the office dedicated to his job
squandered precious gifts laid down for worthless fortunes when men turn soldier
trust me i am a moth and there is light ahead i would not lead you into absolute… i would not take you into perpetua…
sipping cocktails in a dark corner… lit with cigarettes and neon we edged ourselves closer to the end of our stools to the end of our drinks

when the piano notes are dancing rhythms of candle light it’s hard to hear the fire go out the room cools its quiet wakes your fear
she dances like a fool at the idio… gracelessly fueled by cocktails and
you drag a soul around in a body and some nights it’s a bag of bricks wondering if there’s anything left to dream for
i used to go to Gramma’s every Sunday evening we would order pizza watch whatever shows we could agree on
