Finding time to write a line to someone that I knew

I remember slipping sideways falling in to view

Oh how can it be that words can't make you see

The hat stand that hangs in the hallway

Changing sides like morning brides

To satisfy your friends

You overstate your undercoat

To start a new trend

Flying home to work alone on

Building schemes and roads

I remembered holding horses

Catching summer colds

Oh how can it be that words can't make you see

The lampshade that lights up the landing

Changing sides like morning brides

To pacify my friends

You overpay your underdogs

Perhaps you pretend

Framing maps to fill the gaps

That fall across my room

I Remembered turning tables

Reaching for the moon

Oh how can it be that words can't make you see

The witness who waits in the wardrobe
