drifting attention
drifting attention
a kaleidoscope of thoughts
songbird on the wing
2015
drifting through focus
drifting through focus
what is it i was doing
sunlight catches rose
slide into focus
slide into focus
attention honed on this task
loose all track of time
the things to be found
the things to be found
by digging through the cobwebs
basement of my mind
her last soft breath left
her last soft breath left
a peaceful death is still death
whiskey numbs the heart
there is a longing
there is a longing
the need to see her once more
a heart is broken
a sound broke the night
a sound broke the night
a rattle in the darkness
silence descended
sadness envelopes
sadness envelopes
scattered pieces of my heart
this just fucking sucks
the space between breaths
the space between breaths
a moment of peace is found
and is lost again
the thieves came for sleep
the thieves came for sleep
stealing it into the night
but i was awake
