we are changing
and yet,
we haven't changed at all.

planes flying high,
emotions are crashing.
afraid of what’s there,
things that will never happen.

grasping for each other’s breath,
whispering the pain away.
fulfilling fantasies,
before finding our way home.

back to life a little too late,
i see shades of orange, of blue.
running in circles,
we’re spinning out of control.

tell me.
*will
i
ever
reach
the
outskirts
of
your
soul?

bending words like a madman,
deep beyond what is real.
there you will find me,
struggling with what i feel.
but here i could speak truly.
say, you are my life
and it is you that keeps me alive.
no, i am here to take a chance.
to be alone with you,
to be near you,
even if it just in the mind.
let me look right through your eyes,
grasp what it is like,
to feel,
to touch,
everything that we will never be.
