Something pulls me by my sleeve
And whispers in my ear...

We've become
Bewildered over the years...

I look at myself
Across this tiny room...

Life is so simple
Take this bullet for me...

Fixed upon a memory,
A face of a total blur...

What became of us?
5 years...

Bear knees placed on the floor
Hands holding each other...

What a waste of time
But I don't need to worry...

Thoughts surround me like rivers
Conceiving me in a lake...

Life.
The mere word...

With eyes that stare,
Looking at you...

Tears roll down her cheeks
Like an unsuccessful mother...
