It’s four in the morning
And I could not sleep
I’m thinking of you
But I could not weep
You left me cold
In the land of the living
My music you took
As I lay there dying
I heard that you left
With the man I did trust
Into the desert
Where stone turns to dust
My hope was an illusion
Not very pleasant
Megan came with the news
That you were gone
She said that your heart
Had turned to stone
That night you secretly
Planned to run free
Never thought I’d be
The one who’s set free
Last time I saw you
You looked so sincere
Your famous blue raincoat
Was crystal clear
You never meant
To come back
We never meant to be
With him your heart
Wanted to flee
If ever you come back
Know that I’ve moved away
We are together
Megan and I
I hope you won’t try
Or think
I want you to stay
There is nothing to tell you
There is nothing to say
My bother
My lover
I loved you
My trust you betrayed
Although I still miss you
I can not forgive you
You took my heart
That hurtful day
Sincerely Sam Nash
It’s never the heart that gets broken, just the mind.It never returns to its former self but wabi-sabi.
Thank you for the thoughtful comment Peter
Nice Ode to Cohen. I’m a fan of his work. I even have a recording of me reading “Democracy” Dig this. Appreciate you .

Yes… I guess you learn something every time you make a friend… I didn’t know anything about Cohen before then…. Now I do.. thank you for the comment Damian
Hauntingly beautiful…
Hauntingly?!?…. I like this word… now I have to write a story about that
Do it!
OMG, I had never heard that song either until that competition. I wrote something for it too, but it sucked. Thank God you came to get me, Sam. You do realize that I’m not wearing a damn thing under this raincoat, right?
Behave yourself.. you know that some people are telling me that as Starsrite caretaker that I should be more serious around here… fuck those people… I did not create starsrite to be an asshole… I want to have fun…. Now about that raincoat…
Make me rain, Sam
Saying that this gave me goosebumps would be the understatement of the year, Sam.
This was beautiful in such a devastating way..
Well done.
