hmmm...strange...
I was in my favorite place...
with some of my favorite people.
I had my family...and extended work family there to kiss me when the clock struck...and yet...
They laughed they smiled, the noises clang
They smiled they yelled, the people sang.
They yelled until their voices had vanished
Their voices made it clear that sad tears were banished.
A tear, a lone voice alone in a crowd
A lone voice managed to scream out loud
Screaming the sadness, remaining un-kissed
The sadness of being the lone voice, dismissed.
The lone voice coming from untouched lips
Coming from the earths changing eclipse.
The earths changing but I remain alone
Changing and leaving behind it, the scent of cologne
The scent of a memory too distant to reach
A memory unheard in my silent speech.
Unheard through the lips, alone and sad
The lips around me smiling and glad.
Around me they smiled, the noises clang
They smiled they yelled the people sang.
They yelled their refrains of kisses to make,
Their refrains pushed me to slowly break.
Pushed me to cry.
something was missing....but what? A kiss never meant so much...
Happy New Years everyone-- I look forward to another splendid year. Those of you whom I love, and who I care for--you should know who you are...I wish the best for yall.
