Cotton candy clouds
Memories of childhood days
Floating in the sky

The gentle falling of the rain
And the whistle of a train
Listen
Do you hear them?
The stars begin to shimmer
And the sky does softly glimmer
Look
Do you see them?
And in dark of night, so deep
In my heart, you’ll always keep
Tell me,
Do you feel it?

It’s funny how things happen, how oblivious I am to my surroundings, and who I am, until I hit that proverbial brick wall and wonder why all I had done just faded away. She reminded me often of that. I don’t think I ever forgave her. After all, wasn’t it she who taught me how to hide my feelings, how to disappear into oblivion.

How quickly the days
Seem to pass by, until
I am lost as to where
They all went, disappearing
Right before my eyes
And I blink, to no avail, they
Do not come back, those
Precious people, the ones
I seem to forget, and yet
Always remember, when
It’s too late to do anything
About the lost minutes
Because I spent too many
Hours, waiting for that one
Moment, when time stops
But it doesn’t, does it?
And I forget that I shall
One day, cease to be
Still, I find time to wonder,
Where did the time go?

Faded, into black and white
A silken rose, once sweet delight
Its colors, now ravished, bled apart
Time stands still, as does my heart
We were together, now I am one
This emptiness, can’t be undone
By memories, so long denied
They still lay heavy, deep inside
So let the clock ticktock away
Yes, I will wait for that fine day
When the time, at last, for me is right
Never again will I fade, into black and white
