you'll wonder how your soul will float
Rudderless, alone
Drifting down the loneliest path it surely has ever known
You left and my balloon heart
Came untethered at the base
But hovered lowly, anxiously
For a second glimpse of your face
I wish I'd buried you with a blanket
Or buried you at all
My soul was just not ready
For my heart to take such a fall
I'll take any dream you care to visit me
Even nightmares, where I chase you into eternity
I'll call down this path, though I know you won't answer
I'll meander, I'll roam
I'll follow my soul as it winds down
This path of life alone
