Broken
A framed print upon your wall.. A still shot of the two of us.. Sitting close together, on a bench, Near the falls.. And to the casual observer.. I'm sure we must have seemed the perfect pair But if you look a little closer.. If you too
The Hall
I walked thru the empty halls. Where memories echoed off the walls. I found it hard to breathe, as emotion swept thru me. My vision blurred from so many thoughts. Like the fly in a spider web, that was caught. Memories all so very clear. A

There's a tombstone in a open field, Close by an old ghost town. The epitaph's been weather- blown away. There's a bell tower where petitions peeled, Its been half torn down. But it must of softened every soul that came to pray. There's a s

Alone
