Plea Bargain

Plea Bargain

Call me back to a brighter day

When time was a number not a sentence

Flowers still bloomed under a blistering sun

Children ran carefree through the streets

What happened to happier times?

To heartier laughter and friends?

Hedonistic summers wasted

Lounging in the twilight

Soft notes lost on the breeze

As we sat strumming guitars in the sunset

Can you remember those long gone hours?

If I close my eyes I can taste the charcoal

I am there with you

That’s all that matters
