Close it and walk away

Close it and walk away
Irretrievable day
In a moment decay
No present or future

Next, a changing season
Love comes without reason
Without you, a lesion
Where there is no suture

Out of the season now

Out of the season now
When we walked through the park
The leaves changing color
The nights becoming dark

Standing at the finish
Nowhere a second start
You are in my veins and
The pumping of my heart

Another era gone

Another era gone
Days accumulating
Into months, into years
Days illuminating

Lowered arm Liberty
The passage is over
Out light, the darkness has
Fallen on this clover

Life now a minor key

Life now a minor key
September 4th, May 8th
Dates of melancholy
Reality, not faith

Kevorkian is kind
Books closing before end
On this road to nowhere
No turnaround or bend

There is no forever

There is no forever
Your time now here is gone
A walk across the park
On this, your final dawn

All sounds going silent
Love is breaking the cup
The moon still descending
The sun already up
