Old Monster's Remorse

Psychosomatic memories Sweating in Indian summer Burying bones wrapped in a golden locket And the dirt does ruin its shine Just as a heatwave burns autumnal beauty And it's so very shameful That I let my hate conquer you I wish I had the courage To let my heart bleed with you

"and the dirt does ruin its shine Just as a heatwave burns autumnal beauty"..love those lines in particular..the last two lines break the heart...but they reveal a sweet vulnerability of truth. Always, Laura
