This is a poem I wrote in 2008. I imagine all of my poetry to music, but I am rarely able to come up with my own tunes. This one I imagine to a slightly modified version of I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For by U2. Goodbye My love I'm on my way home Ancient wheels Ancient gears Endless chain Call out my name In the sun Hear my call Give me all Come on out Let down your hair But under those blood-stained skies The light had scorched your eyes And still you are just standing there Still all you do is just stare Over oceans Over glaciers To the moon Feel the fall In the snow I get so cold I get so old Watching the world Goodbye love But under those blood-stained skies The light had scorched your eyes And still you are just standing there Still all you do is just stare While the rain cascades down your skin And the rain drips from your hair And still you are just standing there Still all you do is just stare I'm on my way home But while you slept last night The birds came and ate your eyes And still you are just standing there Still all you do is just stare While the rain cascades down your skin And the rain drips from your hair And still you are just standing there Still all you do is just stare Mmmmm all you can do is stare
