                     Departing fast apart;
                     forgetting left behind;
                     of thousand-pieces heart
                     and voidless burning mind;
                     what magic have you cast;
                     for painting me this blind
                     what poison have I gasped;
                     you never asked to find
                     maybe I went too far;
                     maybe you moved too slow;
                     maybe you reached the stars;
                     maybe I was too low;
                     for slowly breaking scars;
                     as ocean deep of signs
                     I worshipped all your fires;
                     you tolerated mine;
                     this bleeding may have clot,
                     like footprints of a child;
                     of curious, seeking love
                     inside his ruthless mind;
                     maybe I went too far;
                     maybe you moved too slow;
                     maybe you reached the stars;
                     maybe I was too low;
                     but...
                     maybe I'll grow in time;
                     maybe I'll better know;
                     maybe I got what's mine;
                     maybe it's just me though.
