| Will�O�Wisp October 3, 2001 It's watching someone that you love Change before your very eyes Hearing that bond break Snap of a twig in the silence of the dawn The taste of the air itself Holds a different flavor in it You look up And you cannot see It seems as though a fog has rolled in In those days that you came to grips With the reality of her leaving Where once the space was clear as crystals Now all is misted, murky Where every thought was seen in the mind Before it passed her lips Now the words come slowly In a messy jumble sounding of a foreign language Where once a word was as a touch Now both touch and words are forbidden She moves in a new world One which you have no part in She changed before your very eyes While you were blind to see it And now the girl that stands before you Her voice, her heart are different Her body may be quite the same But the rest of herself... It's a will'o'wisp of a shadow of a person you once knew. |
