closure 7-24-97 a midnight ride home the air cool and crisp with just a touch of moisture the scent of rain in the air banishing summer’s heat with the promise of new growth my memories stir languidly wrapped in a dream my heart still singing a midsummer night’s dream but when i wake the spell is broken and no wedding awaits my heart is sad and misses you even before we release each other and i find i must now embrace what my heart has known for sometime i must face the pain inside that i have carried way too long i must accept and acknowledge what i know to be true no matter what i want no matter what i desire our paths have diverged our journey has changed indisputably irrevocably forever

	take me in the shadows take me back to the songbook take me home
