IF life is going to **** us

Then let it, I mean

You left me long ago

Before your body grew, less trusting, yet

Reacting to my touch

And an answer

Too simple to be right

Life and what it meant to be alive,

We fought so hard…

Or so we thought.

Life lead us to the cliff

The edge and the mist

oblivious to the meaning

meant and forced around our neck

death the great and simple end

and then it bends again,

what do you mean the ride?

You mean the past 24

And the mess re-lived day to day,

The fair day goose, and all the love we set loose

So free… So much space

To breathe, I take it in, and choke

And then I believe this

Is getting way too serious

Too meaningful to me

As if faith was your name

And I forgot how to pray

But I know your name

And it just slips out now and then

Then that slip, spills

Everywhere within

Until there is nothing left

But the myth I call home

And my heart

The open cage

The flame that fell apart

— The End —
