HOSPITAL WINDOWS
and all your wishes fallen
on an eyelash it’s a shame
but there’s so many more
you’ve hung on 18
13’s killed you all your
numbers at war
old men with Velcro shoes and
sweet old ladies singing the blues
on memories of children that have
grown old with them
but still they smile
between wakes and winter breaks
like flowers in the snow
they got what it takes
to survive you know but still
they cry and only they know why
I’m sure there’s a reason
there’s a season
for us to all come back again
like a baby, asleep
safe in its mother’s arms
and mother still sings
and who knows why
alls I wants a picture
just a plastic photograph
something to remember it all |
