Never Until Today

north winds blowing,

looks like snow today,

all the autumn leaves

have died and gone away;

coming home

to this dark and empty house,

where memories live in shadows

of yesterday’s dreams,

I see your face,

in the wind I hear your name,

looking in a mirror

the sorrow remains the same,

as I keep on playing

this lonely guessing game;

trying to remember the feeling,

while the dealer keeps on dealing,

with crystal chandeliers

hanging from the ceiling,

the cool night air so appealing;

I just don’t know

anymore,

it was so easy

before,

behind every curtain

was an open door;

never until today

.
