THE MEMOIRE



THE MEMOIRE

The streets
Are
Cold
With bare
Reality.

No one
Moves
About
As far as
The eye 
Can see.

It has
Been 
This way
For a while
Too long,
Haunted
Memories 
Are like
Songs.

One hears
Their
Echoes
Every which
Way one
Turns...
In the
Silence 
There's 
A heavy
 Burden.

That of
The past,
That of the 
Present
And of
The now,
The haunted 
Quiet
Rings loud.

Yes, the streets 
Are 
Cold...
An old postcard
Faded of
Color.

Once lived
Along,
Now only 
A memoire 
Of a 
Once sang
Life's song!
