You remembered

You remembered
I once had red hair
it was an escape for me
in the barren years
There was no notice from you
and your wandering only
one of far away eyes
into strange realms of your
secret world of aloneness...
almost as though you...
your disappearance
was immanent
it could not be stopped,
nor would be stopped
my hair changed color again
I was trying to get your notice back
but, you had moved beyond
I could no longer see my
own reflection
day became
night...night became day
I let you go some where on the edge of both

Oriental gardens

Oriental gardens
tinsel for two
snow on the mountain
where you thinking of me
at all?

Chimes tolled
on the wind...
Night lights
warm cozy dinners
eaten in shadowed
corners...close to you

Gray skies
cold winds
Texas was not
the same without you

Did it hurt when
I told you not now?
Later would be best
we could talk then
our music is soft
on the mind easy
to listen to concerts
You understand me.
