HE DARED ME (V. Polichar)
The final lie is always known
when the dust is drawn and sown.
I'll never know what it meant to you,
but it broke me through and through.
Maybe the wind rose,
kicking the leaves up;
yours in a moment.
Then he dared me, “Drink just one,
Step inside this pool of sun.”
— But I don’t want to wait that long.
Now the sweet of summer’s gone
and we face the chill of dawn.
All the things I thought I knew
melt into a verse of dew.
Was it a sleepwalk?
Was it a nightmare?
How you remember...
Then he dared me, “Take that dive.
When you reach the other side,
you will know that you're alive.”
And if it’s all that I get,
then it’s all that I get.
And if it’s not over yet,
then it’s not over yet.
Then he dared me to believe,
to take a breath before I leave;
then there’s nothing left to grieve.

ONE DAY
I had a day with you -- one day.
Dreams come true -- I'm here to tell you.
And life, it just -- goes on.
Well, if I wanted it to leave a mark, you should've cut me,
and all the things I'd saved up to say,
I would've said them.
I had a day with you -- one day.
Years go by -- that's how they sell you.
My heart just won't grow old.
And if a lifetime could be lived again, I can't predict it.
I had a day with you -- I had a day.
We're innocent of history.
No trodden road, no broken leaves.
(No regrets. No regrets.)
I had a day with you -- one day.
