deep in your eyes
dreams of long ago
I used to love you,
but it’s all over now

all by myself
grieving for you
I found the rose
in the devil’s garden

Day 39 of 100 of a complicated challenge that combines my love for music and my desire to start writing once again. The poem above is a collage of song titles that topped the charts one century ago. 100 hundred years between then and now, yet when it comes to matters of the heart – it seems like not time has passed at all…
My curiously overambitious goal is to create one “collage poem” every day for 100 consecutive days.
