8 ~ faded

I've watched so long my eyes have dried

Waited so long my bones now sigh

Kept silent for fear you'd disappear

Like a feather blown out to empty fields

A fragile thing I could not face to lose

Breakable, broken, breaking.

Is that really you?

Now it's time to bow and leave

Waited so long in vain it seems

But I can't move because it's too late

I've already long since faded away
