Your Do Us Part
I yearn for the drunken nights of wisdom
A circle of like-minded minds
Echoing their lives in every single sentence.
Tainted eyes with laughter in late hours.
It’s a funny thing, missing someone as if they passed
When they are still awake with the living.
My guru was you at the turn of my life.
I would give a little bit of everything
To be in that Smokey alabaster room once again.
Just so I could have helped you as you helped me.
Even talking about you in past tense hunts
My every haunt that we could talk like brothers
What I have learned all these years…
Would it even ring true in your ears?
Would it chop down your arrogance and
Would you actually listen?
I want to help.
I tried to.
But your battle is within your corpse
And you must find that old knight in there.
Alone.
Just listened to this on the ink you provided. Beautifully heartbreaking.
So true:
missing someone as if they passed
When they are still awake with the living.
