Blurry Eyed
Blurry eyed
tears escape me like sap from a tree
unable to control their flow
falling ever silently
unable to switch off
thoughts filling my narrowing mind
slowly slipping out of sync
impossible to unwind
dear friend
I will hold you close to my heart
my angel, my watcher, my occasional lover
If only I'd known you from the start
Out of time
my life ebbs from me like high tide afternoon
my soul unravelling more each night
under the ever watchful moon
for I lost my smile
and found a frown upon my brow
the lines on my face show a journey
one which must end now
