i've never felt so strange
as when we grazed along the path of stars
descending from our summer sky
and around the night was singing off key dirges
perserved as lullabies
and again its time to sleep
again its time to go away
i'm sure you think me stranger for thinking this
but that night i think i loved you
when i promised to follow
wherever you ran
i promised i'd never let you come to harm
was i being a shepard
selfless and sincere
or was i simply pleasing myself
with you being here
maybe it was just a dream
one i've had few times before
only this doesn't end in nightmare
this closes with something more
something so much more beautiful than the realization of my demise
this ends with a friendship intact
but now with stronger ties
