Separated By The Window

by daisy   Jul 13, 2005


I wanted to go with him
But he told me to stay
He said I'd understand someday
And that night he fled from his own life

Just one more day of trying to get by
He came to my window
But he looked straight through
As if I was gone
The window was icy so you couldn't see clear
I asked where he was but he could not hear
His face was like fuzz from all of the tears

He put his hand to the window
But the ice did not melt
Silent realization filled my heart with dread
And I started to scream "why" over and over again
And he spoke to me
His voice was far and distant
But I could feel his heartbeat
hear his soft whisper

I knew he was gone
But I swear it was real
I turned a way for a second
And he just disappeared
