Stains

by Mike Malone - Gemini

Looking out my window I see the trees blown in the wind,
the grey snarl of rainclouds approaches my quiet solemnity,
even in the afterthoughts of my minds eye I think you,
wondering why we say what we say and when,
also I wonder why I didn't say what I wish to now

Alone in the world now is how I feel however untrue,
but i am alone no one knows me like you 
not a person shall know me like you came to
I bared and shared my soul with it scars and wounds
and its stories to tell

without thinking my grip is slipping shall it fall
and it does with a crash and a seeping brown stain
that spreads slow and sure along the floor
spreads like the pain, that lives in me
or spreads like the cancer that fed death to you

Reason for writing:

    My friend
