How was it that we first met?. ...I forget, all I know is you. looked happy.. We walked around and talked a while;. In your smile I found that I. was happy..
Manheim; rainy Saturday with no money nor friend,. only Tequila can end the boredom.. Try to reach London for a pocket of hope;. we're children, we grope in the dark..
Where are all the joys of yesterday?. Where, now, is the happiness and laughter that we shared?. Gone, like our childhood dreams, aspirations and beliefs --.
Time has come between us:. in the passing months I've felt you slip away. as your words and mine came like nursery rhymes. till there was nothing left to say..
With my face drained of colour. and my brain of blood. like Billy Budd. I'm lashed to the grating;. with senses growing duller. and with quaking heart.
My, friends, I never really thought you'd go,. but, then, we know that's the way it happens here.. Now time is like cat's cradle in my hands:. we gather up the strands much to slowly.
I don't know quite what's happening. and my eyes don't see too clear;. all I know is I need you here,. if only to shield me from the mood of the world.
Look at the candle, as it's life is bought,. as the wick just rolls of and dies;. look at the wax-drops as they cease from their goal. and the game they were playing loses its joy.
I stretch my hands,. clutch vacant laughter. in silence and sweet, sweet pain;. without demand,. but with a longing. for what will never come again.. I smell your perfume.
Sometimes it's very scary here; sometimes it's very sad;. sometimes I think I'll disappear; betimes I think I have.. There's a line snaking down my mirror :.
