And now a silence of well-worn regret
That whispers wistfully behind the edge of conversation.
The remote face at the television screen
Never looks at you, never smiles, forever faraway.
Somewhere over the blue horizon
a dream escorts a wounded memory,
a dream escorts a wounded memory,
Footsore, swollen, treading hungrily to reclaim lost ground;
Time wasted by petulant disregard.
Another sin in a cul-de-sac of sinners.
