What I Didn'T Know Then

Persimmon sunshine in my mind I think about you all the time I drink the crimson silver spill the overfloe from every thrill The mercury from off the lid of every shocking thing you did and how I held on to the door around the curves to Nevermoor. the raging wind the windy waves the way you said the word that saves the savage from the civilized, I never even realized, I was the one you carried high like a banner in your sky I wish that I had known back then how much you loved me as a friend. I would have rocked the world around I would have searched until I found the place for us beneath the sky how dare you have the gall to die and leave me just when I discerned the truth about the love that burned, a hole in yesterday's regrets, I know it now............ I won't forget
