I've forgotten
What it means

You across the void
Slumbering beneath
Your eternal ocean
I hear your siren song

Set sails and follow sunsets
Over the vast liquid expanse
Rocks jut out and become my anchor
Driftwood and I drift away

I pass islands but they're not mine
They're yours, fortresses of solitude
Each one a dot, a speck, atolls in infinity
Your loneliness spread and fragmented

Incarnations of your personality
One by one fading from view
Fading into obscurity
A mirage to the eye as if thats all you ever were

What's yours or mine is gone
We own the same mind yet live alone
Our hearts turned to the storm
Finding peace with our hells as it crashes into our bones

We drift apart alone
And I've forgotten what that means
