Voices

I'll remember that night forever,
you on stage, me below.
Your filling my ears with your devine voice.
My younger years.
So in love with you,
you lived the rockstar life,
but what I thought was love, really wasnt.
You were becoming a celebrity, right before my eyes.
I was fading into the background.
The mass of your band t-shirts, hidden in my closet,
far away from sight, far away from remembering those days.
I try to forget the parties,
the drugs, the alcohol.
I couldn't be with you... I could'nt follow you to stardome.
This was your journey, not mine.
So I moved on...
and now,
I'm sitting in this car
driving to the ferm
another day in the life of a buisness woman.
Suddenly, your song comes on...
way back play back,
memories come flooding back
and the song takes me by surprise.
Trickling from the car radio,
to retie the frayed laces of my years.
The memories of me and you,
and the love I thought was so real.
