...get images and words out of your head, once they've stuck fast. Usually it's phrases floating in and out of my consciousness, begging to be added to poem. This morning? The lyrics to "Your Eyes" (yes, from the musical, "Rent!"). I guess that's one of my little word demons prodding me to post it here. It is pretty, a bit like how I would structure a poem. Hmm... gives me an idea for a haiku.
Your Eyes 
As We Said Our Goodbyes 
Can't Get Them Out Of My Mind 
And I Find I Can't Hide 
(From) 
Your Eyes 
The Ones That Took Me By Surprise 
The Night You Came Into My Life 
Where There's Moonlight 
I See Your Eyes 
How'd I Let You Slip Away
When I'm Longing So To Hold You 
Now I'd Die For One More Day 
'Cause There's Something I Should Have Told You 
Yes There's Something I Should Have Told You 
When I Looked Into Your Eyes 
Why Does Distance Make Us Wise? 
You Were The Song All Along 
And Before The Song Dies 
I Should Tell You, I Should Tell You 
I Have Always Loved You 
You Can See It In My Eyes...
