| Feet splashing in water Heart tumbling right behind I still feel your hand in my hair Your heart beating beneath my ear And I wish that I could make yours stop beating As you have done mine but it Beats just the same And I tumble right behind Miles away And yet feeling your joy as a poniard A burden that I have fought years to shed Yet managed only to Give a place of honor That it did not deserve I mean not a thing to you Thoughts of me do not tickle your nose Or wound you Or even remind you I have been forgotten And of all your offences That is the one that destroys me The one that haunts me That I was so easily forgotten That a lifetime of friendship was so easily Erased May I send you a few of my memories, because they all remain Not a one has been usurped Not a thing you were gives me peace Not a thing we were was real Not a thing I was matters And so I sit and listen to the wind Awaiting the day that it speaks of Release |
