7.2.07

Blank page was all the rage,
never meant to say anything.
In bed, I was half dead,
tired of dreaming of rest.

Got dressed, drove the state line,
looking for you at the five and dime.
Stop sign told me stay at home,
told me you were not alone.

Blank page was all the rage,
never meant to hurt anyone.
In bed, I was half dead,
tired of dreaming of rest.

You haven't changed,
you're still the same,
may you rise as you fall...

You were easy,
you are forgotten,
you are the ways of my mistakes.

I catch the rainfall
through the leaking roof
that you had left behind.
You remind me
of that leak in my soul.

The rain falls,
my friends call,
leaking rain on the phone.

Take a day, plant some trees,
may they shade you from me,
may your children play beneath.

Blank page was all the rage,
never meant to say anything.
In bed, I was half dead,
tired of dreaming of rest.

Got dressed, drove the state line,
looking for you at the five and dime.
But there I was, picking pieces up.

You are a ghost
of my indecision.
No more, little girl.
