Pocketbook of Poetry

I read your face
And the words aren't the same
Like a foreign language
It doesn't change your name

Pocketbook of poetry
Lodged in my memories
Pages torn away
Pocketbook of poetry
Lodged in my memories
Where stanzas were erased

We walked
Along many difficult paths
Holding hands
And sharing many laughs

Pocketbook of poetry
Lodged in my memories
Gone with the western wind
Pocketbook of poetry
Lodged in my memories
Alone with the emptiness within

Your name
Rings through my memories
Along with songs
Their burn are my remedies

Pocketbook of poetry
Lodged in my memories
My sick mind
Pocketbook of poetry
Lodged in my memories
Where the grief can't hide

Pocketbook of poetry
Lodged in my memories
My sick mind
Pocketbook of poetry
Lodged in my memories
Where the grief can't hide

Torn mind
Scream and tear at me inside
I can't take it
The anger cannot hide

Pocketbook of poetry
Lodged in my memories
My sick mind
Pocketbook of poetry
Lodged in my memories
Where the grief can't hide
