It was this time or that the
kids climbed on our laps
to watch mildly gently coloured rain
It was that time or this
they only knew life’s bliss
and none of its pain
A stormy sweet rustling breeze brought time to its knees as once true lovers strolled by the Seine It was this time or that as I lay pissed in a council flat
you wore a wedding hat.
It was that time or this you kissed away tears
crushed and bent by the years.
It was this time or that you became a doormat
And had nothing to say.
It was that time or this
I wanted you to stay
but death
sent you away.
