Open Sea

from Spirit's Sleep by Robin Allender

/

lyrics

The bottles of coloured glass
in a city square,
in a photo framed outside your room,
I remember.

A bell tolled outside the house,
a familiar chime,
it accompanied the long walk home
past The Half Moon.

I was tempted to walk right in
and order a drink
as if I’d be met like a long lost friend
or returning hero.

Ease yourself into the past,
a chosen memory
imagined without its yesterdays
or tomorrows.

The brief background blossoms and blooms
with unnoticed corridors
and darkened corners of evenings
cast anew.

The haunts are all my own.
To strangers’ eyes
the windows open to scarlet dusk
hold such promise.
