I looked through you once
I never expected you to vanish
I was so caught up in your stories
I didn't want to let you go
I never wanted to let go
The sky caught your sorrows
The stars let you steal their light
You swore that one day you would give it all back
It gave you hope
Hope that you thought would patch you up
Give you the breath you longed for
The completeness that was trapped within your sleep
Only in the dream
You smile
It came so easily
And faded so quickly
You never knew how it came and went
But you've searched years for it
Never knowing how you would grasp it
But always trying
Always trying
You were meant to try
So
You
Closed your eyes and sighed
"I'll get ya this time."
