Gazebo (first draft) 9/2/14

This is a first draft, no edits.  Typed directly into my iPhone as the words shot through my brain within 5 minutes and was gone...

Gazebo   9/2/14

And if we were a couple

A couple of what I don't know

We could sit in the gazebo

And imagine sgt pepper

Teaching the band to play.

But that was more than 20 years ago

And god knows where all that time did go

But we lost it forever and can

Never get it back.

And the moon is proudly shining

Over the water on the harbor

And I'm sitting in the gazebo

Waiting for my song to play.

And I don't know if I believe

In love or fate or destiny

Or if everything is entropy

Just spinning out towards the sun.

I just know I can't sit here forever

Forgetting about my passions

Silently waiting for my life

To just someday reappear 

on the event horizon 

Like this imaginary band

In the gazebo of the mind.
