Save It For The Day
, James's thoughtsIf I was to tell you?
Would you turn away?
If I was to mention…
Save it for the day
Save it for the night
Where the beasts prance and cry
Save it for my eyes
Where the sunlight glitter dies
If I was to slip away
The undecided night
Everything I said to you
Would you hold tight?
Save it for the dawn
Where I lie broken and deformed
Save it for the full moon
Ancient angst conformed
If I was to hold you
Would you fade away?
Good thing captured once
But gone the next day
Save it for the movies
Where all romance lies
Save it for the stories
Where everybody dies
Save it for the lovers
Where only they will know
Save it for the dreamers
Where will they know to go?
If I was to smile at you
And tell you how I feel
Would the darkness 'round me
Consume all that's real
Save it for the children
Where they will play all night
Save it for the poor
Where they have been denied
If I was to whisper
The way I feel right now
In the words I want to say
But just don't know how
Save it for the friends
Where they will never part
Save it for the surgeons
Only they can break a heart
Save it for the anarchists
Where is it that knows what is right
Save it for your inner peace
Where you are bound by ropes at night
If I was to kiss you
Would you pull away
Would you whisper haltingly
Save it for the day
No odd metaphors, no surreal notions…is the expression doomed conformity? Do you want me to stop with these loser poems?!
