Rust Never Sleeps

A zillion words and a trillion tears
are not enough to show
you the ways
of endless days
and nights to long to mention

Percadan and whiskey
won�t kill this pain
an ache with a mistake
to endure
a sickness
that has no cure

Daffodils and spring rain
serve only to rekindle
reload the spindle
containing the yarn
that our love weaved
the hurt will not leave

I wonder if you share this emotion
or even care
enough to have a notion
to fight this fit with a call
to thaw your cold cold heart
enough to drain this ocean
of tears left behind
from the fall

Do you sleep well at night?
knowing that I might
be not sleeping at all
yet dreaming of you
while the writing a few
words about our love

Do you ever weep?
often seek
solace and refrain
from the pain
as do I ?

Do you too like me often peek
into the memory of us?
are you too mild and meek as you
look back at our love left in the dust?
seek an answer from above with lust
did you know that my love for you like rust�never sleeps?
