Jester
When I stand up to twilight
When the last of the light surrenders to darkness
I feel I should of lived in another life
Like a futile old man, who can't turn back the clock
I am hopelessly worn out from love
Oh, should have I given myself to what's above?
A blood red moon likes to taunt this dying man
Star's like white, guiding lights burn out in the night
All my life I could hardly see
My eyes are fine
But, all my life I could hardly see
My heart is wounded,
From the things I've done
From the life I should of lived
Turn back the clock, old man!
I hear the laughter in the joking wind
Oh, blood red moon, I've been a dying man
White light guiding me to its laughter
When the twilight surrenders to darkness
I hide from the sky above
But in my dreams, I see a jester's grin
In return, I laugh too, that's how I sleep at night

love it
keep writing these trickster poems SC
These are the golden words I've come to expect from the quiet legend of SC.
