Sweet Miriam
Written on a New York sidewalk— One thousand feet of purple chalk— Is a madman's letter to the girl who split in zero zero. He never, ever begs for money. Though the guy's defacing public property, The five-oh let it go, So they too can read his tale of woe.
“Dear love of mine, Once again, I see the sun shine. Does it still shine on you, Sweet Miriam? Ten years since we kissed, But as long as I believe you still exist, I can survive, sweet Miriam.
“Though I loved and I lost and the cost was terrible, Almost unbearable, I feel no regret. People pass and I guess they see me, As being on the fringes of humanity, 'Cause I work till creeping night To get this one thing right, My letter to you,
When I'm done, You're gonna come on home.”
One day I walked by and there were no words at all, just drawings of the two of them in the park, ice skating, stuff like that. Once he did kind of a flow chart showing how their affair fell apart). But mostly, it's him talking to her. , “We had it, we had it, We had that deep connection, Far beyond the extremes Of physical affection. To think you could share it with someone else, I can't describe the hurt. If somehow you turned into a ray of light, Or a speck of dirt, Or even if you were plankton Floating in the sea, I'd know you, I would need you near me. Oh please, oh please, forgive my delirium, Sweet Miriam. Come on home.
“Today, Once more, I'll wipe it all away. Sweet Miriam, Come on home.”
