Peggy Pollock

There’s a train that leads to miles away,
It’s a special train, It leaves today.
You’ve looked it up and booked it
Bought your seat,
...

I never thought that weeds would grow
Though years they have been left, I know
Somehow I thought that nature's way
Would shout "a loved one here is lay! "
...

Sun sits and rests
Makes silhouettes
Of strangers by the sea
I stop my steps
...

Alas, I fell for your words
For your tongue, for your verse
How it hurts
How it hurts that I fell for your words
...

Siren
Rumble of traffic
Rustle of wind
Singing of birds
...

...

Put me on a pedestal
And ill perform for you
You fool.
Ill press your eyes into my lies
...

I know you, we've before.
But you don't know me.
You've spoken to me
Been impressed
...

A sudden distaste for my own music
Calls for a silent torture
And I wonder
At my own misfortune
...

Eyes of a crazy Driver,
Your steering the wrong way
Take a pretty yellow
and and make a dirty gray
...

A sad excuse to brighten life
So ugly did they hang for us
So limp to simply gather dust
And even with the candles lit
...

Sunset spills a golden glow
Into a gloomy room
Under golden paint I know you know
The words that will be spoken soon
...

For a short sweet moment,
You had all of me.
Not just me in that moment
But me eternally.
...

You'll never find that missing piece for one got left in I
The night I saw your shattered soul infect a part of mine
Alas I wish it false, but I carry part of you
An ever lasting splinter, from a dance I shared with you.
