Broken



Broken clocks and faded colors
Glowing hands that tell no time
Flowing words that search for reasons
To these questions set in rhyme
Empty rooms and moonlight windows
Memories dance across the floor
To a tune long since forgotten
That we both sang once before
Broken promises and whispers
Spoken softly in the night
Midnight vows of restless lovers
Disappearing in the light
Where the glow of burning bridges
Brightly burns, then fades away
Like a dream you can’t remember
As the shadows come to stay
