Twenty Four Hours

* * * *

* * * *

* * * *

*

So this is permanence

*

Love's shattered pride

*

What once was innocence

*

Turned on its side

*

A cloud hangs over me

*

Marks every move

*

Deep in the memory

*

Of what once was love

*

*

Oh, how I realised

*

How I wanted time

*

Put into perspective

*

Tried so hard to find

*

Just for one moment

*

Thought I'd found my way

*

Destiny unfolded

*

I watched it slip away

* * * *

*

Excessive flash points

*

Beyond all reach

*

Solitary demands

*

For all I'd like to keep

*

Let's take a ride out

*

See what we can find

*

A valueless collection

*

Of hopes and past desires

* * * * *

*

I never realised

*

The lengths I'd have to go

*

All the darkest corners of

*

A sense I didn't know

*

Just for one moment

*

I heard somebody call

*

Looked beyond the day in hand

*

There's nothing there at all

* * * *

*

Now that I've realised

*

How it's all gone wrong

*

Gotta find some therapy

*

This treatment takes too long

*

Deep in the heart of

*

Where sympathy held sway

*

Gotta find my destiny

*

Before it gets too late

* *
