6. DARK WOOD, GREY STONE

Strong light, dark shade, light hand with a heavyweight
deep thought, shallow pool,
open eyes on a sharpened tool
sand sifts on a winding shore, walk through an open door
born first, died last
what is now will soon be past.

Old, new, borrowed and true
was paradise when I found you,
born, torn, wearied and scarred
but no longer feeling blue.

Red haze on a green baize, sad song on a wedding day
hard luck on soft shoes,
good times for a chosen few
mood swings, dark things, playparks and diamond rings,
hands held, far away
sweet dreams on a rainy day.

Hard luck, blue moon, sad song with a new tune
close call on a payphone,
green light in a red zone
pressed flower in a red book, cost you nothing just to have a look
dark wood, grey stone
trust me you’re not alone.
