Jerry Golden Poet Lyric

To the Goddess of Royal Ruins

Acorns are falling 
And autumns beginning to fade
Been lonely for sometime
Now I can’t find a smile

My shadow walks
But I can’t find my knees
A disarray of fallen leaves
Brushing away my ease

Carel is home
Caroling with the wind
December sings her song
Do you even notice I’m gone

Note to myself 
The clouds are dipping low
I have to become something more
Before time lets me go

When everyone’s preaching the same tune
And only new founders loom
With decimated friends I fail to comply
Taking inventory among a pharaohs tomb

If you can’t appreciate me at my worst
How are you to recognize me at my best
He would sing a lot
From a voice that was dull

Walking on broken skeletons
This great wall of china moans
Shadows dance dimly toward your hand
as the sun brushes against the sand

Now that time won’t allow my stay
On this day that lives with us
My comfort seems to push you away
Now I can’t feel you there
