I have misplaced the words.
I know that they are here -
Somewhere,
Lying near the laundry,
On the floor.
I have mislain the tune.
It is floating in the air -
Up there,
Fluttering out a window
Left ajar.
I chase after the beat.
It is underneath my feet -
Down there,
Rolling out the door
And down the street.
I know not what to do
With this song I wrote for you.
You see,
It is broken like my heart
Used to be.
