UNTIL THE INK RUNS OUT
Poem By: Billy Alsbrooks
________________________________________
A second death on the first date
I’m on the edge of falling
This is where it ends
I think?
This is where it ends
________________________________________
I die between the shades of gray
Always the last to let go
Wait for me love
Please
Wait for me
________________________________________
It’s all too familiar
What I carry has its own arms
Come find me love
I’m somewhere behind the whispers
Somewhere out there dying
Come find me love
Come find me
________________________________________
What you see
These are just symptoms
Signs of a lovesick man
A broken man
Hiding behind the other side of the sky
Wait for me love
Please
Wait for me
________________________________________
Our restless truth
Warring with a million lies
There’s a love beyond the shadows
Your love
The love that became the sun
A light at the bottom of another life
This is where it ends
I think?
This is where it ends
________________________________________
To a woman
A woman who’s more than a woman
I’m forever indebted to you
Wait for me love
Please
Wait for me
________________________________________
Daughter of the rib
My sacred muse
Let’s harness the wind
Make my pages explode
Until the last of me
________________________________________
Until the ink runs out
My sacred muse
Make my pages explode
Make my pages explode
Until the last of me…
