Michael J. Falotico Poet Lyric

Always Me In the End

No more playing in the rain..
                                                  I sold my tears and left the game..
                                                    I climbed up from this tiny hole..
                                       Took a breathe and raised my hands from a fold..

                                                       No more playing in the rain..
                                          I finished my glass and swallowed all the pain..
                                                  Now I stretch my legs and my mind..
                                            Blowing kisses that will fly and search blind..

                                                       No more playing in the rain..
                                        I lie naked under the moon and dream in frames..
                                             Tiny pictures like silhouette's running free..
                                              But in the end the reflection is always me..

Andrea Dietrich June 15, 2011 at 10:16 PM It's uncanny. I have a poem I called Always Only Me and this is kind of similar to it! (well, mine is quite different in some respects) I really enjoyed seeing this here. LUv, Andrea

Iolanda Scripca June 15, 2011 at 6:25 PM I can imagine you grabbing a guitar and playing and singing these lyrics against a lake " But in the end the reflection is always me... "
