[hometext] => One for an old friend. This is one of my favorite poems. I hope you like it.
[bodytext] => The Frost Sun the way it’s cold reminds me of you in the days when all the guys smelt like roses when we were drifting thru the frost sun staggering down past the Battery, like a couple of wanderers me and you & everyone pure me and you, always laughing making that funny connection only happens, when you’re not even trying, I can see your face down by the lit beach, I hear your heart in the wind still, & we were always so happy, being lonely... I remember being just 17, I remember the way you changed me I was the clone in dark sunglasses, you were the toughest in the clubhouse you were the cool girl with the gun you were the only one I trusted you were the One yeah, we met in the Sunlight & we knew the Secret Sides living in a teenage wave of lonely hair & hip dreams drifting thru the cold frost morning gunning for the real times, gunning to run staggering down past the Battery like a couple of wanderers & dollface, I still cry when I think of all those cool hearts dying it hurts me some nights so hard the cold face of my favorite guy when he just couldn’t smile, he just kept saying “hey man, it’s the hard drugs & the bar years they made me so cold & hard inside, & I want to be the way I was then, yeah, I wish things were different but babe, I won’t fake it, our beach is a long way away now...” it hurts me some nights so hard, the way mirages swallow feelings that were true, the way the knife cuts into everything, even gentle summer winds and cool freedom tears... I just kept moving fast, I just kept the glasses on, I went by the Battery all by myself, I saw the Sun go down and up, I heard our song play, I saw our ghosts love and laugh and lose again, I saw the illusions blow in, I felt the Winter come, & take something away take something away... staggering down past the Battery, like a couple of wanderers, when we were drifting through the frost sun, the stench of roses, through my hair and my hands, living in a teenage wave of lonely hair & hip dreams, gunning for the real times gunning to run the way it’s cold reminds me of you when we were drifting through the frost sun & I was learning all the things we don’t really want too, about how we let things go just because it’s easier... & hearts are only things we wear, they can get torn and so tiried... yeah, we let things go we leave the remains, & we walk from the roadside just because, because that’s what all the rose guys do & people are only blue, or more real kinda broken somehow... staggering down past the Battery like a couple of wanderers me and you and everyone pure me and you, always laughing skipping class to go drivin’ I was the clone in dark sunglasses & you were the toughest in the clubhouse you were the cool girl with the gun all the places that we played all the lonely friends we made time sucked everything away & we both saw the lights in the eyes change we both held on held onto things that were fading yeah, we both said goodbye to a place we can only find in our hearts now I remember driving till the gas ran out & by the roadside, I saw the blue star come right down I remember the last time I saw you I remember the last thing I said I know we’ll grow up and miss this the way we wiped away each others tears & we promised never to cry again because people just aren’t worth it living in a teenage wave living through the frost of lonely hair and hip dreams, gunning for the real times gunning to run I remember being just 17 I remember the way you changed me you were the toughest in the clubhouse you were the cool girl with the gun I was the clone in dark sunglasses and you were the One & both of us, way out both of us, so gone the way the Sun shines down thru an icy sky reminds me of you the way it freezes tears makes me think of lonely beach days in winter driving with you forever it hurts me so hard I thought getting older would make me numb I thought I would care less about cold days in winter, but I still care now drifting thru the frost sun making my heart the hitting zone it was the world before scars it was the world before we got hard we were two on the beach we were sitting real quiet in the car as the rain came down & I didn’t really know what waves meant then & I hadn’t walked the love edge the way it’s cold reminds me of you in the days when all the guys smelt like roses when we were drifting thru the frost sun I remember being just 17 I remember the way you changed me you were the toughest in the clubhouse you were the cool girl with the gun I was the clone in dark sunglasses & you were the One (David Finn, 1999) [comments] => 3 [counter] => 142 [topic] => 43 [informant] => redlantern2051 [notes] => (Approved by Mod_1) [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
