I am here,
in the place where fate resides.
A waste of time,
or just erasing mine?
A clean slate,
another state of mind.
I have lost direction,
must have missed a sign.
I got caught up
for a minute in your grand design.
Didn’t see that I had missed my ride.
Only for a moment
that became most of my life,
never saw the day
had slipped away to night.
Did I lose it all,
my past just another fire?
Did I choose it,
or was I chasing my desire?
Did you not hold me
and tell me we would meet again?
I remember every single word you said.
I guess it’s time to move on
and soak my past in gasoline,
drop the match
and ride in to the night,
leaving behind shadows
of what might have been.
We never meant each other any harm,
but we will forever bear the scars
and memories still too hot to touch
it shouldn’t cost so much
to give in to our lust.
Good night,
my memory in flames.
Good bye,
it’s too late for exchange.
Good night,
I can’t forget your name,
even as it burns,
even as it fades.
Good bye,
yesterday’s embrace.
HG – 2016
