Like Sand

Almost fell asleep, earlier, tonight

But my eyes flickered for just a moment

And in surged thoughts of her.

 

Lately I'm so wrapped up

Matter and abstract feelings filter through my head.

On no other subject will the slide slow

Then stop, grainy, on her.

 

I've tried to harden my heart

But it seems I’m no fickle soul

My mind might at times be empty

Though even then it feels empty for her

We must feel differently

 

She cannot be written off

Heart to hand and pen to paper

No matter what, we at least know

We feel differently, tragically

 

All this, any song could tell me

To all this, any one can attest

All this, I will always know.
