empty the rain clouds fell
from the Southern rain drops today
that kissed my lips goodnight tonight;
and lately my guilty conscious left
me blaming myself each morning
as I woke up into that love that
could never last past the Whiskey
filled skies that left me
wanting more of a heart ache wishing;
wishing it's pain away into the sunsets coming alive.
heaven almost smiled at my hurt
as my Halo raptured my heart away;
holding on tight as even the night
turned black back into the stones that
never seemed to roll away from me.
it was such a long time ago that
I felt a love come true for me;
and even though I posed a radiant picture
of a beckoning wishing that the stars would
succeed into the Leap Year of a yesterday forgotten of me;
I laughed with the disturbing thoughts that captured
my soul; carrying me back to the plateau that
almost evened itself out for me.
God only knows I've made enough wrong turns in my life;
as they've always ended up into nothing but dead ends
that ended up breaking my heart over and over again;
and as the smoke dwindled away from the fire that
I use to call love; it made me wander;
into the still of the night;
as the Whiskey filled the skies
I almost cried one last time
of a loneliness so real that it made me
grab hold of the daggers to become alive
to me once again as the rainbows
folded accross the atmosphere;
I almost laughed into that repitition that
said I really was disturbed.
