Scene To Scene
A three day beard gruffed attention
but that was not at all his intention
she was late and so was he
whiskey encrusted lips
not recalling
the final sips or steps
when or what he left
he, not right and that was wrong
a lovers lament sold for a one night song
ripped hearts and unchained collars
what of tommorow
and that line
crossed, crisscrossed
running out of time
clouded
another mind
searching for nothing to find
no answers undressed
under questionable circumstances
winds chase dreams in the clouds
only to shift
from scene to scene
but that was not at all his intention

ripped hearts and unchained collars

running out of time

searching for nothing to find

“he, not right and that was wrong
a lovers lament sold for a one night song
ripped hearts and unchained collars...”
Well, now... you can’t build anything sustainable upon a foundation of lies, and leftover whores from one night stands; or grubby ex partners that just can’t seem to let go after you’ve attempted to sever the ties, and move forward with your life.
Oh. Life, can be a tangled web of lies once woven as such !

I saw the previews on Netflix but wasn't sure if it was something worthwhile to watch but now you've given me every reason I can think of based on this beautiful poem to watch it today.
You truy wow'd me with your gorgeous imagery and heartfelt sentiment. Very nicely done Tim.

It was after midnight and I in bed, so I might have missed a few scenes but it is worth the time. Thanks Layla

Probably the most profound story with a twist was the one with Mickey and i must say the one with Keira was pretty good too.

Okay, first off...the write is fabulous. Very intriguing...knowing you & your penchant for layers. Second, I think I'm gonna have to watch the movie to see what you're alluding to there. Part of me just lives for the mystery itself in your writes though. Like a walk through a magical garden. Never the same twice! :-)
