as the song faded
by Travis G Finborga sad song played in the background
something about love
and leaving
the walls seemed too white
in the flourescent light
my eyes were peeled at the edges
i layed there
on a bed of rumpled blankets
the heat of my sweat slowly cooled
i felt sticky and the air tasted sour
a tang of loss filled the void
always i watched her leave
as i slowly receded
sleep would overcome
the song would fade 03/03/2005 Posted on 03/04/2005
