A seasons change away

I would watch you endlessly,
Let hours wilt away,
I long for you relentlessly,
You are but a lifetimes wait,
Like a flower in bloom on a warm summers day,
You come and go as the seasons change.

Sodium lights and street flowers

Darkness fell silently, a curtain call on the day done by, 

She walked down sodium lit streets with a wish on her lips, 

Lips that wouldn't move, thoughts that moved too quickly,

A dirty street, studded with little white flower stars.

Sugar rush monkeys

Turbulent thoughts swing to and fro,

Like monkeys on a sugar rush,

Chattering,bickering,hurling abuses at each other,

The noise!The noise!!

It shows no sign of ceasing,

Heavy boulders weigh my shoulders down,

Pushing deeper,deeper underground,

Like a quicksand struggle,

The fight is useless.

I lost the rudder at sea one day,
As mighty winds shredded sails,
No compass in hand,
Floating on a sea of memories,
The sea cradles me  in her bosom,
The gentle rocking soothes my soul,
I rest my tired head on imaginary shoulders,
And whisper sweet nothings to the sea turtles,
The only company i keep,
Salt crusted brows frown at the sun,
Its going to be a long way home.
