The Descent

On October 8, 2009 © Stani. All rights reserved

cruising along without a care
all that matters being together
flowing as one, rhythmically
thoughts interlinking.

come on, come fly with me
worry not about loved ones
what draws us together
much too strong to resist.

all alone now
tiny pangs of resistance
regret holding us back
not for too long.

in your eyes I see
the ones I have left behind
to enjoy but a few moments
of elusive dreams, illusions.

just like papa of old
a rolling stone in the making
holding on to handbags and gladrags
on top of the world.

this descent, this fall
all it is, just a walk on the flip-side.

in time, at the end of the road
when we come to our senses
memories all we have to hold on to
memories of days gone by.
