Get it over with;
And drag your worthless frame out of my sight.
All your threats and rituals
(Like dreams that never have been drem't)
Have washed up on the darkest shore,
Protected from the sun
And not allowed to grow.
Your presence new and rich with evil
Makes me twitch, leaves me drained.
Leave me to search this barren ground alone;
As if there's something worth looking for,
Worth finding.
You've proved yourself at every turn.
In little ways I've seen you.
Lights I thought had shone inside you
Are just around you, burning down
For the inquisition.
Fake hypocrisy invades.
You don't even know yourself;
And I can't ever know you.
You undo the bond,
I've witnessed you unwind the string,
Feverishly clutching opposite strands,
Changing direction.
You led yourself into the desert.
Hot winds erased your tracks.
But, I can see your sihlouette in the distance,
Against the setting sun,
Your drawn on the horizon
(Beautiful from far away).
Soon, distance separates
This tangible feeling.
Cuts thru it,
But I still can't quite understand it.
I can't even name it,
Not even by looking at it's insides.
All it's workings mystify me.
But it just shows that you
Can't define it either.
Confusion, extra information makes you cringe.
I bet you've always run away,
When you just can't understand.
But...
Somehow I believe you.
And maybe when you find your thoughts
The ones that hide,
Leaking out your mouth as you sleep,
The ones you ignore along with
Everything that crowds your head.
Whenever all of these things are neatly
Tucked away, never forget them,
And find me
To tell me how you've learned to deal
With this life.
