when the magic dried up the
onlookers moved
on
the suits
jacks and queens in diamonds
the spades and lonely hearts
the kings
leaving them
only true
aces

i came up
4 air you pulled
on my hair we
fought 4
swore 4
hours
my forever 4
ever underneath
the outbursts we
loved
#katyamills
they was loving life they was up
at dawn and ya they got knocked down they
got up quick they came back fighting
and
after they been through it they
sat back drank a
cool glass of water up
at dawn and
such was life
#katyamills
the grapefruit ice you stir
upon the delta breeze
while summer lost
the spark
calm down you need not
rush
the leaves to turn and
softly fall upon the crossing
walk
time to sit and talk
all the cell phones gone and what a world
would be. what a world
once
was and how we got along you
fingered my blouse i cried to think so
soon you would be
gone
like a control freak losing
control you could not
hold on
you had to
let go
scared you are
guarded
you see things you
never before
saw
breathe. take it easy
it’s better
this way
take a vacation to planet earth
it won’t be paid you
gotta earn your keep
it won’t be fair cuz life on earth
ain’t fair
you could get lucky you
are guaranteed
pleasure and pain in almost lethal
doses
come and sign up at the mall see
how long you can
survive
you found a place where you clicked you could go and be known you could go and belong you could go and now you’re aching to be there
where
you can dress how you like and just show up and speak out any of the lost or jaded old attitude and let them have it and turn into something fresh and funny and not so heavy though it may be honest
true
the lightning strikes the storm thunders so violently like it did back then you know you never left you are there it is here and all is real
