I search for you in the dark
under the illusion of a dream...
You are next to me
so close, so warm...
I'm stuck
in this self-created limbo...
Deep breaths
try to take it slow...
I thought I knew
what I wanted...
Open your eyes
Yes, I'm here...
Tip your hat
Smile at me...
I don't even remember where
I was sitting when he came in...
Her life curls around her
like the fingers of two lovers hands...
Laying here
with the cold thought of what if...
Each word
a lost cause...
Slipping in and out
of consciousness...
