Playlist Poetry
The shadows stretch across the empty floor,
As I remember what we used to be.
I walk alone beside the open door,
And drown inside a "bridge over troubled water" sea.
You left me with a "shadow of the day,"
When everything we built began to fall.
I watched you turn your weary face away,
And leave me with "the sound of silence" call.
The evening brings a "fast car" driving past,
Reminding me of how we used to run.
I know that nothing golden ever can last,
And we are "stuck in a moment" undone.
I wander through "the scientist" advice,
To calculate the pieces on the floor.
My shaking hands are turning into ice,
Beside "the scientist" who walks no more.
The night becomes a "black hole sun" above,
A heavy weight that crushes down my chest.
I try to breathe the memory of our love,
And search the dark for some forgotten rest.
