Metlife 80,000, Yet There's Only You
by Johnny CrimsonA shaded gloom
in velvet hues;
the leather ropes,
their twine unglued.
A faded construct,
this haunted past;
her sacred photo,
reveals his mask.
Standing there slim
amongst the crowd,
the song begins,
photo comes out.
The tears fall,
the sweetest face.
One friend worthy,
sees this exchange.
Back she goes,
the pocket cave,
until another moment,
her spirit saved.
On my mind,
forever you'll be;
until we meet
in that eternity.
Always my Lulu
always my bug.
We'll hold hands,
so blissfully unplugged.
