Tomorrow Haunting

Its here, its now, staring me on my face,
i never realized, but it has changed shapes,
the tomorrow i distanced from,
is finally here to haunt.

No warnings, no preparations,
how could it come without anticipation,
surrounding me like smoke,
as if waiting for me to choke.

Where is my sweet dream, that i slept over last night,
and where is my past, that i knew when i was awake last.
and where are you, my comrades in crime,
why cant i find you as i seek out your hand.

Lost, all lost, here i stand,
nothing around can i understand,
the world i knew has moved on,
and i am here to face this alone.

Farewell

It doesn’t happen often,

but for some reason i cried last night.

For that one moment i hated you,

and all the migratory birds i have ever met,

'cause they just fly away, one fine day.

Life goes on, time moves on,

and tomorrow the sun will shine bright as ever,

but this night is long, and dark for sure,

the tides are running high, the winds are blowing strong

windows flutter, the doors bang wild,

and often at night i run to latch 'em up,

to stop the memories from flooding in again.

Dear friend, I wish you to know,

that you leave behind a heavy heart and numb eyes,

and in the corridors of this heart,

will echo your laughter for days to come.

Though i know i'll get over it,

but for a long time i'll miss the fun,

i'll miss the shots, the drunken gossips,

the forever falling dancer, the forever smiling joker.

Dear friend,

i bid you farewell,

i wish you luck,

and lots of love that'll last you the lifetime.
