Daylight Savings Time

3-10-13

 

This weather,

the lighted night.

The breezy flight

of leaves across my vision.

The nostalgia

guitars and music

windows open

records playing.

 

A carefree hour.

 

But the darkness approaches

and we notice that this hour

is not carefree

but an hour that was lost.

 

shut the windows

break the CDs

hide in bathtubs

 

Your time of happiness 

is only a facade;

a mask over what is truly

storming in your heart

tearing your sanity.

 

A little breeze

won't change a thing.
