It all just seemed to slip away
when the world went slippery
and ran, like water on paint,
like a mirage of the road ahead,
like petals in the wind.
It was not my trigger,
not your fists,
not her whip,
that brought this fall.
It was all nothing more
than a fantasy
She would never come back.
She left us all, left me,
and wouldn't look back.
I couldn't do anything.
I cried.
I ran.
I cried while I ran,
screaming the name, her name.
She would never come back
Exhausted, weary, empty.
Are all the days to come
empty like this one, without her?
I slept and dreamt.
I was far from here.
Matron was big,
Sis was pretty,
Irvy was strong,
Zell was brave,
Selphie was giggly,
Quisty was smart.
Seifer was bad,
but never bad enough to be evil.
And Mom and Dad were there,
and I hated them, because they loved me
too late.
When time got slippery,
like tall grass in morning,
I tossed and turned.
"No, I don't want to go.
This is my home now."
But I have no home.
My girlfriend said my name,
and shouted my name
and plead my name
and cried my name
and when I opened my eyes
nothing had changed.
I had been playing in my mind
in that little garden where I'm boss and king.
I had been playing in my mind
with ifs and whens and what could bes
I had been playing in my mind
a fantasy that would never be real.
I'm all alone.
Again.
Still.
Forever.
