Diamonds and Rust

“And we both know what memories can bring
they bring diamonds and rust”

Of being left alone
standing in parking lots
as the taillights fade from view
left in the dark
blue

Of searching the stars for meaning
diamonds in the sky
burn out with the rust of time
It is all very clear now
just continue breathing

Reconciling
A decade of masquerades
I close my eyes
nothing ever is
what it seems
no one ever stays
And in a moment everything can change

“And if you’re offering me diamonds and rust
I’ve already paid”
