Adam's Ale


Pitiful nostalgia I have yet to admire
Do you miss me?
Though I've abandoned you eons ago
I find a longing to feel your waves on me

My hair is now copper
and my skin is now softer than it had been before
but the scars on my knees remain
as do the cruel memories

Though your ground has eroded
and the people on your land have been swept away
you still smell of salt and water creatures
your grass short but still green

Your rays are still unmerciful as I remember
My flesh still burns from my visit to you
Like a long kiss goodbye
hoping I'd return to you once again

Though I miss you and your people
I can no longer bare your smell
it is as though you've drenched yourself in perfume
to mask the wrongs you have committed

Will you change once I return
or remain to what we once were
my old friend.
