Part of the 60 Days of Poetry…Continued from Spin and Was..
Was like was,
That was you,
That was then,
That was when we called
It young my friend.
I saw that border
Pretty close,
I saw you in the dark
With your eyes closed.
I thought we could still
Be friends,
But that has to come to an end.
I had the source,
And it told me life,
Told me water,
Told me about the Living
Father,
I was walking those streets,
And carrying those stock
Cards,
I was flipping my phone
Thinking of those days
When I didn’t need anything
But you,
I took those pictures,
Of those cheap clothes,
I took those pictures and
Stayed a little longer for you
To tell me about your future.
You wanted to travel, girl,
Travel it with me, too,
I just, had, to, go..
And get ready for
The next show.
I had to set the glow,
I had to talk about the
Now,
Cause I had it going with
You, now I got to stop texting
You at midnight,
And giving you the bright
And first thing, first in the
Morning hello,
Baby, I got to go,
I gotta let it go,
I gotta delete you now,
I gotta notice,
You getting older over
There,
I gotta go,
I got to get out of El Paso.
