~Savor~

you can't
let what
happens now
ruin your
tomorrows

I hid
in the
shade of
carved waxy
Camilla's
blushing red
in the fading light

I felt
the safe reprieve
faint as
a dream
within
a dream

sawdust and glitter
is made up
of more then memories
start again
cross out
what I've become
new light
shines everyday

it's the
fighting that
makes the
accepting
more bearable

come on,
time to walk
you have
something to
live for
you're just
another tainted
grown-up
we all
fall for it
hook, line
and weighty object

like a
sexy bowl
of peach ice cream
I will savor
it
