Chimes

In the year of being vulnerable
and the time that was July,
I caught her drifting aimlessly
through the passage of my eye.

The birds of truth talked solemnly
as she spread her wings of sighs,
I caught me breathing enviously
to everyone's surprise.

She whispered then of ever-mores,
of maybes and some-times,
then left me to my nevermores
as the clock of yester chimes.
