Solitary Man
Solitary Man
I am haunted by your words
That lay heavy on my heart
We are only as strong
as the miles between us
Destined to be apart
There is a sense of dislocation
I am an empty vessel
With all the hangover
and none of the buzz
All these things I wrestle
Reflecting on our last night
Sitting in the park by the lake
The color of your eyes
In the moonlight
I melted like a snowflake
I was dancing on air
Until you laid out your plan
You were leaving me
Never to return
I am now a solitary man
