Stars 4 (pt. 2)

 

Our love was beautiful music.

We used to play guitar.

 

I broke yours once in a fight.

Your sun would no longer shine bright.

 

From then on there were only lines

About you. You were an off egg.

 

I was bacon being cook in the sun.

You were the beginning.

 

I had only just begun.

But do away with the metaphors!

 

This is how it goes;

We're all by our river, the reservoir a shadow 

 

Of what we know.

Wow Rory, I'm most impressed, I can't think of a better way to describe one's self than as bacon, crispy and delicious lol, although you are being rather modest about not being the better half,  sometimes we are hot headed that's for sure, but I'm sure you have made some magnificent music from memories and past experiences. Love your last lines so poetic
