I heard about you. . . . . .

i heard you had a treasure chest
i heard you kept it closed
people said you were the acid test
they said your life was posed. . .
someone said your heart was broke
the pieces strewn about
i heard your life was miserable
you live your days in doubt. . .
someone asked where you had gone
i said i didn't know
its kind of like asking
when a hard wind is gonna blow. . .
i heard you were the space in time
i heard you were the end
people said you hung the moon
they said you'd not descend. . .
then i saw you wipe a tear
when you thought nobody knew
i guess nothing is for certain
except a last adieu. . .
