for the moment transported
into the world beyond this one
where passion runs free and unfettered
and ideals and emotions are barred by none
the songs so pure and touching
of ideals and love and truth
and in that instant it seems this world
fades away into shades of grey
at the end of the encounter
waking as if from a slumber
returning to this […]

the summer a year ago
seemed so far away
but this year, unlike the last
things have changed their way
friends are leaving never to return
and while we might just meet again
when the leaves chestnut turn

the bright days were wonderful
those glorious moments of sunshine
feeling perpetually cheerful
holding her hand in mine

the sky was gloomy and stained
and looking out the window she told me
that we were overdue for rain

it’s been but twenty four hours
one sleep away and three meals
it’s been but one more day
yet the place i am doesn’t seem as real
the gravel underfoot replaced by carpet
the shadows of the past
dispelled by the glow of the present
nothing quite seems to last
it’s been just one day
but here i am a world away
