the town where i was born

with the scent of blooming
magnolia trees and promise

used to hold mine
tight as a prayer
as we walked to the creek
where fish swam lazy
circles in the shallows

Dear Messiah of mercy
Son of creator
I miss that want for you
I get lost in my nightmares
I lose my train of thought
I lose my voice sometimes

Waves seep over sand,
The Sun crests,
We’re hand in hand.

A story from a moment of a drunken glory based upon a moment of memory we once held,
An unbuckled belt to fill more remedy of a barley fermented,
Remember the taste of a libation from an overseas import?
The argued opinions of what's stronger... – by G-Tso | added by anonymous
