August Tenth

Two years and then she calls it quits
But with a pencil writes your name
After the H is an ellipsis
With a question mark for the future just in case

August tenth
At a standstill upon the 10
That was when

Months, maybe years you'll reminisce
What you would have could have changed
Like mistletoe without the kiss
That's just self-prescripted pain

Quiet remind
It's never just black and white
It takes it's time
Life moves slow
Like the drip from the honeycomb
Now you're in the throes

No way to phoenix out of this
Retrospection can't be tamed
Over the bones go 'head and pick
What the heart wants can't be changed

August tenth
That was when
At a standstill upon the 10
