Dolson Avenue Graveyard

My already heavy heart sunk at the sight
Part of my life dead and black in the night

Tear down everything that speaks of you
And discard it with the rest
You can fly your flag
But can’t say who you are
I took everything I could get my hands on
Threw it in the car
And took off

Our laughter masked our sadness
As we said goodbye
Deserting the dwelling
And buying into the lie that…
Things like this happen all the time

I took a picture for old times
From an abandoned parking lot across the street
You can fly your flag
But can’t say who you are
I took more than I could hold with my hands
Held it in my heart
And took off
