every sorrow


~ i dreamt of a background my thoughts could erase, when laughter and teardrops fell lost in this place, and teacups from Denver held soft drinks instead, while words that you shouted still ring in my head, will anyone notice that truth is a pawn, to whisper a farewell the day I am gone, for promises shattered are all they can be, when every sorrow is best friends with me ~

'when every sorrow is best friends with me:' Such a uniquely Chris Green way to express this emotion... I always take away something valuable from your poems. Thanks, Chris.
