Chasing rainbows thru the midnight sky

The passing relevance.

Chasing rainbows through the midnight sky
High and dry in the sigh of the sea
Captured sunlight spending itself against the sides of your heart
The inertia of silence.

The skilful touch of a novice at work
Impossibility reaping the seeds of confidence
Mere coincidence decided by fate
The agoraphobics coach trip

Skimming stones along ungrateful waters
Stopping the clock to check the time
To smoke 20 fags from a pack of ten
To love you when doubt is near

Birds singing out of tune
Disrupted harmony bringing order
To hear the sounds that chime silent
To miss you even though you're not gone

The merciless emptiness of a roomful of people
The friends you wish were dead
All agree to one thing
You are not there, you cant be this cruel

To let me stand alone, solitary amongst the crowds
As you walk away, with my heart scattered like ashes
In your luggage. I'm there, fragmented love.
Where was heaven when I needed to die?
