one
small tear drop
upon the pillow
through reflection
I know your face
through brown orbs
I see your soul
by my side
patiently you wait
for me to finish
having given up so much
to be here now
how can I cheer you up?
and make you smile again
upon the edge of everything
so much to finish
so many things unfinished
knowing no more where to start again
or how to end
so many distances spanned
so many directions yet to turn
time will tell us soon enough
deciding the fate of our lives together
and solving our puzzlement
about our common fate
no longer knowing right from wrong
no longer sure what path to take
