Floorboards Of Your Heart
by Kate DemereeSome distant day
You will at last
Hear me
When the wind brushes your hair
Lays it on your cheek
Perhaps it will be then
You hear me speak
Soon I will be gone from here
The dust will once more settle
It will be quiet again
No more upset
The floorboards of your heart
That so loudly protested my weight
Will no more sing
Discordant tunes
The wind will only whisper
Which is as it should be
Distant, only blowing through
Now and again
