it came to me last night,
this rambling thought of madness,
the one that got away,
that is to say,
the one I have loved forever,
and love to this day.
even though your not mine and I'm not yours,
somewhere deep inside me we are together.
somewhere in the thoughts that haunt me when insomnia keeps me restless.
somewhere in dreams that give me peace yet taunt me and leave me breathless.
somewhere in this pain in my heart,
somewhere in this glint in my eye,
somewhere my consciousness lacks to find,
this whimper in the night,
this whisper upon my lips,
fall on deaf ears,
like the laughter of the past,
gone in an instant,
only a memory of something that was never real,
unrequited and fallen from grace |
