And so the roses
fade to dust,
Tainted memories
fade to rust,
Blow across
the dusty floor,
Becoming ghosted echoes
once more,
Open doors
curtains billow,
Dried up tears
on empty pillow,
Used to be laughter
in this room,
Now nothing but
a sorrowful gloom,
Close the door
and lock it tight,
Sweep these memories
out of sight,
Time for you to move
along,
Dance with me
to a different song….
