Thoughts

Swirling thoughts and drifting lights

These things made up my Friday night

Distant bugs sing the same song

The same song as always

Always the same thoughts

The shine of the town comes to life the same way

Burning like they always do

This creaky fan stirs a storm

Round and round

Just like those thoughts

All about him

The dark silhouette of trees form monsters

But those monsters are always the same

Just like him

Those monsters stalk for dreams,

But fall asleep before me

When those monsters come close

The thoughts are too scary

Even for them

Him, him, him.

Can’t get over him

Those thoughts circle like vultures

They’re the same as the tide

Back and forth

In and out

The light of the screen dulls thoughts

The ache to speak

To be heard

To care for me

The thoughts that should be followed

Sink away too

Burning sun and heavy burdens

Not just my thoughts

All their thoughts

All their problems

Just to save me from my own

Saving others from the monsters

For mine are too strong

The thoughts about him

Echo down the path

As gone as he is now

Thoughts come less

Maybe they circle wider

The monsters fade

Not forever

Not the same

But he is fading too

Fading like his smile

The bugs still sing

The fan still spins

The lights still shine

But after all

Change can come slow

By Seb, no planning went into this and was very bad, so forgive me for that
