Gigged out

Tired, neutered and flat

Drowsy, battered and crap

Scatered, ears ringing and wondering

where did my weekend go?

 

Gigged out

Spat out and hurt

Load-in, set up in dirt

Sound checked, rain and disturbed

 

Darkness, smokey and curt

Irritable, sweaty of course

Days lost to the night

Hungry, beyond "alright?"

 

Midnight arrives

Still loading out in drove...

Echoes of playtime

Walking around an empty hospital

Hearing voices, standing still

It's a strange feeling

Knowing there's no one on these grounds

Rebounding and allusive

Screams of fun and play come across

From another world now at a ...

the lost souls of our dark Decembers

 

We start off four in our fellowship

With hopes of seeing off our hardship

To cross a finish line is ou...

Ode to Percy…(a cats best friend)

Watching the leaves fall

Standing so tall

Waiting at the window

I still wonder

It wasn't long ago

 

I can still see us

Haunting shadows in the dusk

Running, fighting, climbing

Making footprints in the snow

 

Your furry figure lingers at the edges of my mind

Gone but not forgotten

Your smile runs to hide

 

Sunny days fade away

As your ghost lies still
