Summary:
Late night musing. I penned this one in November of 2024. I've learned not to take myself so seriously all the time. lol. Appreciate you. - Damian DeadLove

How can I miss you?

When you never go away

Water’s wet sky is blue

Perpetual victim falls prey

 

Outside in the distance

A stranger lies in wait

Steeped in persistence 

Always guarding the gate

 

When did I get wise?

Is the proper question 

As soon as a crow flies

It disregards suggestion

 

Across from the station

Where young lovers flirt

All over God’s creation

Someone’s slinging dirt

 

When did you sale it?

And why wasn’t I involved?

Shut up and take a hit

Another problem solved

    1. Dear D,

      You still got it. An incredible meter. Made me want to sing this. The imagery played in my head of a dark bus stop. Why? No clue. But the players in this piece for me, were intertwined. Trying to run but wanting to stay. I have a longer version running in my head but I’ll spare you the directors cut😊
      Wonderful write. H🌷

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, H. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I sometimes have that effect, it’s just the lyricist in me. lol. I always enjoy your commentary. Appreciate you.

    2. Just reading Honoria’s comment above & I think she’s right. This one might need to be considered for your lyrics list on the album. It has a cadence that moves & the visual is captivating. Worth considering, my friend? 🤔

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Anything is on the table, maybe even spoken word. Never say never. The song I’m working on, I literally had to start writing lyrics to it. None of the old words were fitting the vibe. Also, I haven’t tried to write a song for many summers now. I kinda forgot sometimes the music leads the dance. lol. Appreciate you.
