That look in his eyes And I retreated To the dark, dark place where even my mind won't bother me. Where I become nothing And nothing welcomes me.
I retreat to the place I have not been For such a while And I don't even feel myself falling Into black.
Time ceases. Nothing consumes.
But his voice becomes light And its kindness pulls to me "Come back," he says. "Come back." My eyes open to him And he gazes back at me, Perfect and sweet. "Where did you go? You left me all alone." That is it. He understands.
