I just wish the wind
Would ******* away
Take my brittle bones
And break them with ease
And I would blow through the trees
Carry on with the breeze
To a distant place, a place that
I could forget you and me
But I'm far too heavy
Far too weighed down
By the heavy load of the absence of your love
The burden of you gone to not return
As much as I try to free myself of you
You return in dreams like the passing of the leaves
Tumbling by with the wind
As fast here as quick you were gone
But you haven't left, my dear
Oh you have not moved on
From my billowing thoughts
Of what could have been
And I'll pretend to keep my head in the clouds
Despite being buried up to my neck in woes
Dreaming of a day that I'll be light enough to be carried away
By this wind so strong today
