time

will nothing good ever survive
the passing of time.
Do we have to die a hero
or live long to be deemed evil?
does everything turn sour
if left untouched but only admired.
do memories fade
when not mentioned
what about anguish and anger
do they fade away too?
or do they simmer below the surface
building up for a final eruption.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
its the time of the year again
will you dance with me
'neath the moonlit night
one last dance
before the whispers of goodbye
rustles through the trees
would you
pretty, please?
