i once wrote some poems - peter hammill lyrics

i once wrote some poems of stillness and silence,
standing by rivers of reflected light:
my thoughts were on being loved and yet unloved, too –
i surrendered to the warmth of the night.
and now i feel like dying,
and if the water were still here, it would
hold me close.
i once wrote a poem while walking on gravestones,
as cobbles, rain and tear lashed down my face….
i then felt my whole world was fading
as memories jostled and fell into place.
and now i feel like dying,
and the pain of old fires still burns.
i never wrote poems when i bit my knuckles
and death started slipping into my mouth…
but that was really a long time ago,
and i’m not writing poems now.
and though i don’t feel quite like dying,
there is something deep inside me
softly crying.
and though i don’t feel quite like dying
there is something deep inside me softly….
