Poetry: His chair

The old man sat back in his chair,
Looked like a monument so old
Visions of his past underneath the white hair,
Not even bothered by the cold

Oh dream maker do me a favor,
Take me back to my bright young days
Let me touch and let me savor
All these illusions of my yesterday

The young lad arrives from school at four thirty
Sadly arrives to see his dad
Visions of his future seem so grim and dirty
The evenings mood again is sad

Oh dream maker do me a favor
Take me up to my ripe young age
Let me touch and let me savor
All these illusions my heart can fake

    Thats his chair,
    over there.
    But he isn't sitting in it.
    Not anymore.

    Thats his chair,

    Growing dust and fading in,
