From December To November Poem by Lynette Lawrence

Do you hear the echo of our song?
She doesn't know why
but that's the first time
Phoibe really gets along

Do you see the shades of gray
fadin' day by day?
Bright white
is how it really looked one day!

Do you feel the shadows of this age
December to November
a killed coconut tree
you didn't see.

Time has made us strangers
even though
I can still memorize it
as if it just happened yesterday
it already feels like millenniums away.

The shattered pieces are still left
every new beginning is an ens
a terrible green will stay unseen

I had done something wrong
but the time still flows
by, day by day
red and orange
still seems to be aching in my eyes.

I started hating cherry-cola
wha, it's so sweet and brown.
Now that I'm sitting here
thinking it through
this was nothing but falling for you.

I had these fears
I shed some tears
but still thinkin' 'bout it
doesn't help it
These are Maryelle's feelings
Phoibe never felt this

Everything is just as real as it seems
but I never knew
that I could feel that much for you

I never told anybody
how I almost died for you
waiting in the burning cold

This was falling from grace,
falling from the highest place
hitting the hard ground
Did you ever want it to be replaced?
