The Party – Tuesday 17th April 2001

The Party 

i did not notice anyone leave
i did not hear the music stop
i had not noticed the time
ticking by on the clock
i thought the party,
would go on forever
i did not notice
people arrive
i did not notice my death
till they made me feel alive
and illustrated my breath

i was just glad they came
the party ended
because we did not stay the same
i did notice, until time moved on
the end of an era
the end of song
i did not notice the gathering years
until they were gone
i remember all the laughter
and forgot the tears
i did not notice the party ending
