crumbles

the bed is stripped down, the wind saunters in
and it's a new end.
and an old beginning.
and i fall
because i did fall
again


i'm not too late for the show
i went to buy my ticket
but it was too late
sold out.
the seats were filled with adorers
and he took front row centre, you know.


people walk in and out of each other live
or sometimes run
or, you know, even tip-toe
bringing gifts and lessons
unexpectedly
what did we take away from each other?
maybe you fixed me
maybe i'm working properly now
or maybe i'm just looking for another way out
again...


of all the people who walk in and out of your life
do you know how many will love you?
for your wit, your talent, your sense of humour
and your beauty?


i didn't get a seat in the theatre.
and there was a reason for it.
that's what i believe.
that's what i will hold on to
in dark days to come.
there's a reason you chose him
and boy, is he lucky.


you remind me so much of another
bronzed, funny, loving actress
one who i loved
last year.
and she left too.

and i don't miss her anymore.
