TO ALL THE PEOPLE


TO THE PEOPLE




The Dotted Beatles
acrylic paint on canvas by Robert Margetts

To all the lonely people
walking one in a crowd
passing strangers in the snow
keeping an eye to the ground.

To all these lonely people
who live on memories
and the dreams that they sail upon
pass late into the night
and the loved ones that they made
echo memories from new touches

To the people who chose to forget
the laughter and cries
the smiles and frowns
the warmth and fears

To the lonely people
who fell in love with a poet
that danced on words
and sculpted songs with his heart

To all these people
self-pity walks with you.
