Fly Away

There was only me that day
I had chosen to fly away
but life is short and time has passed
I am only shadows cast
here on these pages for you to see
a dim and dark reality
of showing only me.

I fly away sometimes still
I always have and always will
much often the elements of time
excuses for tomorrow's melancholy rhyme
diminishes sight
of any other way
pianos sting, tones betray
superstars and guitars affray

forgive, sometimes I fly away.
