Back
10.04.04

I’m back
But I’ve been gone
I sailed around the earth
Seven hundred times
Into the horizon, over and through
I still intended to return, even then
So I did.

But you’re gone
Your shell is all that remains
And it’s tears like bloodshed
Which reign my life, now
In these cold moments
Without you here.

We were never real
We were just what we needed to feel
For the moment
The moment, which could never be ours.

But it doesn’t matter.

Because I’m back
I’m back, despite their damnation
Damn them, and their heads full of ideas
I hate them
And they could never hold me back.

You do not know that I am real
You read right through me, and still you have never seen
But I love you, more than I’d like to admit
With shadows of sunlight dancing upon my face
I come to this same realization every day.

And I am not afraid
Though in my mind, I’ve watched you turn away
Seven hundred times
If this is the ‘and one’
I still intend to return, even then
So I will.

<--- fall into my patterened tears... [return]
<---<--- catch me as i fall? [CS]
