In a daze
lost for worlds
found amazed
unabashed
a new plan unhatched
a new light unleashed
a new body unrelaxed
tensing up from pressure
would melt if it were wax
heart broken
scattered
Wasted and splattered
mop it up then
wipe away the heart
erase the emotions
make it cold as the dark
make it cold as the pillow
I mean the part you dont touch
to emotionessly rise
like sun does at dusk
rise above those petty lies
rise above us
High above power lines
To fly is a must
boldly into the sun
call me Icarus
I dont have you to hold me back
remember there is no more us
