Missing

I tell myself that one day I won’t miss you

I catch myself looking for traces,

One day I will accept that I shut you out

I made the decision and I took the easy road

I tell myself that one day I will be happy

I tell myself,

But I don’t listen

I think back upon the years which led me to today. All the roads. All the decisions. All the meaningless and endless twists and fated moments. I think back as I do every single day. Why? Because I miss her. I still think I hear her. I catch glimpses of her smile and her eyes. When I try to focus, she’s gone once more. So I suppose today symbolizes her. I know she knows how sorry I am, but alas, the path has been traveled. She was left behind. One day I will be happy. If she forgives and returns to me. For now I will continue to think back upon the years which led me to today. Today and everyday.

On this day

Was it yesterday
I seem to have forgotten

I was alone
I was pensive

In solace
I gazed upon my thoughts

I left my life behind
I travelled my soul to the end of time

I want to take away what I left behind
For Life is fickle and unkind

For now time holds my fate
For now I must live and wait

Was it yesterday
I seem to have forgotten

Tranquility of the mind
My soul is made of time

Upon my parting
I had whispered the truth

Upon my awakening
I shouted an answer

Upon my realization
I sought an interpreter

Blind
Deaf
No one to hear
No one to see…

Was it yesterday
I seem to have forgotten

Upon my birth
I will forget the end

Upon my death
I will remember the beginning

And on this day
I seem to have forgotten

I am alone in peace
I am in solace complete

On this day
I have found my way
