Requiem To a Dying Year

January Too abstract too plain The memories January hoards How do I calculate the weight of longing ? February I held poetry in my palms To grow where the rainbows blossom Why is it so hard to write about love ? March Colouring the void Within and without Not even the crickets sing anymore April Moons that followed as everywhere we went And the ice pellets we picked in the rains What happened to the world we knew as children ? May Freedom from subtlety There’s something about simplicity And my ineffable words that rhymes with reason June Lampshades on fire Dawn begins to creep Who placed a Bounty on my head ? July So why don’t you give it a try Lend me a hand see if it reaches me I will meet you half way August In your bliss Far fetched from my glory Don’t forget me when you are famous September Poised for the healing A blooming A trance You can have it all ,my jar of wishful thoughts October Holding your absence Then the quite explosion Why does your words sound like silence ? November My tears became a river that craved an impossible blue My tears never reached earth You were never here December And in all hope More smile more love more chocolate What the world really needs now .
