Have you ever really noticed,
as you stare out through your shaded burnt sienna eyes,
that I'm staring back,
wishing you loved the life you are trying so hard to save.
Shattered, now, I shed a tear...
I wasn't aware I had anymore.
Gentleness is no longer a valued trait
and broken is a common state of being.
Why do I pine away at impenetrable facades?
Power is over rated,
am I the only one who sees that?
Undoing time won't do anything but make you know me less,
if you ever knew me at all.
Did you ever even want to?
Wrapped up in silly games of life nor death
we simply exist.
I just wan't to quit playing,
just want to live and love.
Don't die for me unless you are willing to make it worth my while,
but you never will,
because its only the reasoning you do it for, not the reason.
So sleep well, Love.
I know I speak with foreign words tonight,
but when I see you sleeping in peace
I imagine you finally know what they mean...
