I managed to make myself write something, so here's part three.
Prompt: Turn song lyrics into a new story.
We went drinking back, drinking for two.
We play together in the backyard.
I shuffle all the cards.
We have some laughs while drinking.
Let's get lost on mars.
Hanging from the trees,
I tilted the clouds; he tilted my hand.
Come dance the silence down.
We never went far
-
Oh, we'll meet at ten.
Coffee and juice; He sure deserves it.
Things have been dark for too long.
"What happened to you?"
He's unhappy. "It still hurts."
He takes a brief silent before continuing to talk.
"I can't hide how I'm feeling; I'll want a quiet life. Making waves across the remainder of my time."
I can't stop; Every muscle is aching.
There needs to be somewhere to run to when there's trouble.
"It's just the wasted years so close behind."
I want to be strong like a lion.
"Believe in me."
"Sweet dreams."
There's glitter in my eyes.
He walks in slow motion in my direction then he's out the door
There is a cast of golden light from the sun onto his soul.
If I knew Picasso, she's looking down at him.
