September*

They carved your name into a stone
And they put it in the ground
I run my fingers through the grooves when no one’s around.
Drink ’til I’m sick
and I talk to myself
in the dog days of the summer

And I feel you coming but I don’t know how.

September.

*(c) Ryan Adams

    I linked your blog through Katy’s. (I love her SPF’s) I just read this and wanted to say “WOW”

    Is that the whole of this poem? Is it a lyric or from something else? It’s wonderful. At first I read it as Bryan Adams…I’m a dip that way.

    Yeah it’s the second verse from a new song by Ryan Adams. You can hear it at his website Ryan Adams. It’s gut wrenching. The lyrics are:

    Laura lays on the foot of the bed
    Mimics a noose with the telephone cord
    Doctor’s on the phone
    And she hangs up and says
    I ain’t ever gonna see the winter again

    And I don’t know how but she smiles

    September.

    September, September, September.

    They carved your name into a stone
    And they put it in the ground
    I run my fingers through the grooves when no one’s around.
    Drink ’til I’m sick
    and I talk to myself
    in the dog days of the summer

    And I feel you coming but I don’t know how.

    September.

    September, September, September
