Time slipped through out fingers,
Like smoke, through a fishing net,
And our hearts to young for sorrow
Spill over with regret.

We were playing at it, pretending.
While around us, your world was ending.

I think of you and wonder,
What kind of friend can I be?
When your dreams are the subject of plunder,
And your heart has lost its key.

We were playing at it, pretending.
While around us, your world was ending.

I have no power to heal it,
This sorrow that tortures you still,
So I look into other parts of your life
For a trivial need to fill.

We were playing at it, pretending.
While around us, your world was ending.

It seems like there's eons between us,
And I know I should be by your side,
Yet, I can't help but feel, as I lie in the dust
That the very best part of me died.

We were playing at it, pretending.
While around us, your world was ending.

Not entirely sure where this one came from.

Time slipped through out fingers,
(change "out" to "our")

And our hearts to young for sorrow
(change "to" to "too")

Really great poem!

Well written.

(Isn't it such an interesting thing that we so frequently can't explain some of our most compelling art?)

Thanks :)I've come to the conclusion that some of my best work is the saddest, I think that humans are somewhat defined by sorrow, and happiness is harder for me to express in art. (Sorry, end of my philosophical rant ;) )
