Spring in Port Alberni...

by Polaroid   Sep 27, 2010


I remember spring in Port Alberni
all the green, emerging at once
through the rain, I used to love the rain,
With colour sparkling here and there
I remember it used to make me smile

now, it hurts to think about

and those warm rainy days
are replaced by dryness
... and emptiness

I remember, but I want to forget

I remember friends in Port Alberni
the ones that I want back so bad

Sometimes I wake up and think they're still near

Sometimes I forget that its now, not then

I remember spring in Port Alberni
I want it back so bad

----------
* written on a hot summer day, when I was just missing home.
