emotional ear piece

Amen Omen
live
at the stroke of midnight
what a way to ring
in 25


On the other line
in my quiet
living room I sit
listening to Lynne loving it
i love her voice
so happy

the song means
various things
and tonight
it carried the weight
of a thousand days

mr. ben released
tears streaming
letting the sadness
float & be named

every single word
every word
embodies
something
within me
attached to
melody
and
delivered
from the
ground
on down
to the gold
of the sun

sadness stitched in
uprooted by him
and soothed by her

its still here with me

my phone stained in tears
only if i knew what i
had to fear

forward drive
in gear
only the
folly of loving
to fear



and she says
"i love you stephanie"
