You Can Never Have Enough Roses

ANOTHER NIGHT UPON US

She sits in the front seat
Fumbling and fiddling
Trying to find the track
To tell me what’s behind
Her recent reticence

In less than a month
We’ve lived a lifetime
She senses
It’s soon over
And so do I

We’ve had our honeymoon
I’ve had my child’s chase
But we barely settled in
Before the fade
And falling out

Our brightness burned
Briefly and better
Than the masses
That milled around us
And droned like dead men

She pushes play
Sings along
Against the sun
Wishing it would shield
The descending darkness

While we look away

And listen

Like it’s the last time

I used to know a girl who played the fiddle. She called it a 'violin'.

Where she comes from they call her a fiddle player. It's even on her Wiki page.

And for whatever it's worth that poem inspired this project:

The link's legit. No reason not to click unless too raw for your readership?

Leaving the site at all is too raw for me.

Too raw

The point milo's trying to make is that we ask people not to put links in with their posts, but you're welcome to link to it in your signature. We have a lot of trouble with spam -- besides, putting in your signature will save you typing/pasting it every time. If you're not sure how to do it, just click on User CP and "edit signature".

I was going to get to that, Leanne, i wanted to approach from the soft side so as not to scare him.

That was the last link I'd planned to post anyway so need on the signature or to worry about scaring me. Unless you're planning to invite me to a poetry reading.
