My backbone was cracking through my skin
It woke me up from the long slumber that I have been in
My skin was drying from the coldness of your heart
And praying was the only thing I could do as my part

I searched for the air that you were breathing
But it just turned me back around and mislead me
I became identical with what I was searching for
And oh my, a mirror maze it was!

My logic tried to fight it but heart was in the way
Into tears I turned and dragged unto the sea I went
Like raindrops I was nothing but a cycle
Of emotions and confusion

I tried to move with the waves but my mind caught me
It caught me giving up from my prime objective
It was you that I have wanted for only so long
I had nothing but memories and expectations of you

My backbone was still pushing through
And my skin was still getting drier
There was no sign of you getting closer
And here I am getting caught in a mindfire

One can only wrap oneself so much
With burdens and dark voids,
With stories and undivided attention
With pressure and fracture

One can only wrap oneself so much
So that the unwrapping takes longer to do
The slits and ends are difficult to find
And only by letting oneself to carry through the process

One can only wrap oneself so much
And only the wrappers show
So that one is completely deaf and blind temporarily
To the many ridiculous things waiting out there

One can only wrap oneself so much
In the end these wrappers will disperse, transform
Its aura only so unmoving as a goodbye,
Morphing into the unknown

It is only too easy to miss, too hard to follow

Eventually,
One will unite again with these wrappers
And they will only come back for more
So that one can wrap oneself with only too much
Until one can wrap no more
