 Internal Graffiti

For The ones I left behind


Kentville Pictures, Images and Photos




Flying back to reality
on a plane in cold mid-December
still the girl I was before I left
but wondering if anyone will care to remember...

A little less pink champagne
instead, I'll taste the salt of the east coast rain
under familiar old skies;
A little less cocaine..

sipping chamomile tea
with a home-cooked meal and writing my poetry
no make-up table or studio lights
Going back to the real simplicity

You won't miss me this year,
because I am going to be right there,
showing you that what I do
is not as glamorous as it looks to you

so here I step off this little plane,
just as I was before my whole life changed
same old girl
here to show you that I'm still the same

and I promise I'll see you soon.
