• Can you understand how it feels when your world washes away?
    To be swept back in a whirlwind - different, with things missing, realigned?

    Never the same, will I be..

    Have you ever experienced gut-clenching pain..
    Where it stretches out every single millisecond,
    Awaiting your feeble attempts to correct your wrongs
    Dragging you from one hell right into another?

    Come back, we'll change . . . together,

    Have you seen your life disappear before you,
    Teasing you with exotic visions that you'd never be able to withstand?
    Rushing at you, taking on a new meaning to forever
    Leaving less than ample space to breathe?

    Materialize, help me.

    Do you ever think that someone is listening to you,
    but in all actuality they are criticizing your every word,
    Caressing your very thoughts, if only to appease you momentarily
    before the takeover castrates you, tooth and nail?

    We are one.

    Would you ever embrace the sharpness of a blade?
    Smoothing it along your skin, hoping for return.
    Cleansing your hands of the very filth that stained them,
    Lingering in your subconscious mind.

    I'll await your return . . .

    Scared and uncertain of your person
    Embody your personalities and become one, together
    letting them carry your burden,
    If only for a little while.

    Let peace consume you . .

    I won't forget the many ways you've helped me,
    and it hurts to give you up.
    But I smile, and I want to laugh, with you . .
    That's what you'd want me to do,
    no matter how hard it seems . .

    It's what I want to do.

    It's what we all want to do,
    because . . .

    We love you.
