The Poetry of Joe Cairney...
LIFE AFTER LOVE
Sleepless nights, sobering days
Just like time love slipped away.
Tear stained pillow on an empty bed
Echoes of you fill my head.
Sunless mornings, starless nights
Darkened room can't stand the light.
Don't want to see what could have been
Can't close my eyes for fear I'll dream.
Whispered words, lowered eyes
So called friends just walk on by.
Can't bear to talk and pass my way
For fear they'll see themselves one day.
Quiet house, lonely street
The only sound is my heartbeat.
Wishing, praying that it would cease
Give to me my final release.
Sleepless nights, sobering days
Just like time love slipped away.
Tear stained pillow on an empty bed
Echoes of you still fill my head.
Joe Cairney
