For The One That’s Always Been There


Ancient empty streets too dead for dreaming

no longer call out to me.
Now that you’re here,
I find no need to search for a new world.
My weariness amazes me.
You take some of it on yourself.
Together we lay
And appreciate the bond we have formed.

(bold lines borrowed from ‘Mr. Tambourine Man’)

  1. I find it so cool that you incorporated lyrics into your piece. You have built a great poem around them. I really like the line, "I find no need to search for a new world." It's like you always want to get out to a new place, but sometimes where you are is just fine, too.
