___ON MY WAY BACK HOME

___ON MY WAY BACK HOME


letters from home on the back of my hand

ebb and the flow all alone on the roads

_daydreams of being something

same dream i had for a decade or so

brighter the light : darker the dose

higher the highs : lower the lows

_daydreams of being someone

didn’t have the means to get anywhere close

letters from home in the back of my mind

making my way through the dead of the night

i have not seen anybody in time

more that you look : less that you find

letters from home in the back of a car

thick of the night : dawn of the day

sleep deprivation unscrupulous waves

rattling chassis white Volvo estate

LETTERS FROM HOME ON THE BACK OF MY HAND

PENNED ALL THE WAY UP MY ARM TO MY HEART

LOVE IN THE LIGHT OF THE MOON AND THE STARS

DESTINY ETCHED IN THE LINES ON MY PALM

don’t leave me alone you’re so hard to let go

seasons elope : ain’t easy to cope

dreams of a boat in the swell of the ocean

intimate schemes barely staying afloat

not really you

not really me

not really something

not something to see

purply silhouettes sway in the breeze 

_sycamore trees
