come back homeA Poem by Valerie Cwiekowskisaturday night left undone front door's locked crack the kitchen window and watch her clock falls past 3 am this love's traveled round run-down tracks sprinkled with graffitti of who we thought we'd always live to be
sunrise morning's coming don't you like the way the world turns hate the way your feelings change you can't outrun unfinished loves that's nearly bright enough to follow streetlights that give way to sunlight it's almost 6:43 in the morning
everyone's buried under mock avalanches of failed heartaches lies we badly need to believe
you're here at the right time long enough to lend a passing thought to last night's early morning kiss when you disappeared from my life © 2008 Valerie Cwiekowski |
