clocks
just still
without, a part of me
waiting in the snowy rains
for you
to keep the promise made
on the day I was born
by you
to me, mother
In 1983 you betrayed me
vanished across the city
starting a new life
new loves
never looking back
other than to say
'I hate you'
from behind your castle walls
which has echoed endlessly
throughout my life, loves, dreams...
with no ending
with no you
without, a part of me
waiting in the snowy rains
for you
to keep the promise made
on the day I was born
by you
to me, mother
In 1983 you betrayed me
vanished across the city
starting a new life
new loves
never looking back
other than to say
'I hate you'
from behind your castle walls
which has echoed endlessly
throughout my life, loves, dreams...
with no ending
with no you

this is magically set, and softly, forgivingly, painfully told. brought a tear to my eye.

this word is the beginning of its not being true - which makes it a beautiful word :-)
