In the distance
seemingly living for all the world
to see
maybe only my own
the chance is apparent
i couldn't see
the hope was given
and lost within the same moment
one i will never get back
unshielded i go forth
missing nothing
hesitating on a whim of odd proportion
i was once here long ago
quickly going not knowing-
the destination
i roamed freely, passionately
only to fall
waiting to heal
only to plummet
again
supposedly such a thing as not getting there
a place of what could be
choice has sprung to life
that step is surpassed by anything worthy
what once was is fading
slowly, abruptly
no time can tell
no comfort in this blaze
