Catalogue Yesterdays

Yesterday, things were so much simpler
We were younger you see
More ready to love
Too stupid to care

Yesterday, we didn’t belong
We were lonely you see
Sunset chasers
Daylight wasters

Yesterday, we laughed with the moon
We were feverish you see
Crazy, smitten, fresh
Answering the lone wolf’s call

Yesterday, we were free you see
Not so today dear friend
No more lonely
No more scared

And so dear friend
You and I must now end
Ground into a crowd of a million faces
Back where we perhaps belonged

And all that’s left to desire
Our catalogued dreams
And reasons to die

(To the first love that died easy after 4 years of friendship. Archives from a diary circa 2005)
