I’m just a gentle
breeze of cool air.
Felt for a second and
gone the next.
I’m just a whisper on
lips unknown.
A mere silhouette,
noticeable but not
there.
Where were you when
the night fell down?
Where were you when
my eyes were closed?
Did you spy a glance when
the ravens were still?
Did you see me shy away
when the feelings weren’t
there?
Words are like smoke,
it’s forming but fading.
What we mean is
like a two-way
street.
What we say is like
words full of
trash.
Harbor your heart
with lovely bars,
bars of steel to
compensate for
the deal.
Let me tell you
something.
Hear my voice
loud and clear,
Just as the cool
breeze is felt for
a moment,
that’s who I am.
There for a quick
second and gone
the next.
Physically here, but
mentally not.
At the end of this story,
along the lines of gray,
where things are truly
simple, time and time
again, I can’t help but
grin.
Dandy, isn’t it? How
emotions betray and
lead you astray.
Follow your heart
and die in vain with
pain in your soul.
You don’t understand.
And I would be lying
If I said otherwise
regarding myself.
For I do understand.
Now leave me be and
forget everything you
see.
