Long Gone
I’d jump from the highest peak
I’d kill a thousand men
I’d forever shut my eyes and close the door to my brain
I’d stop and diligently search every car and plane
Just to get you back again
Here I am
But you’re gone
I lost you and can’t get back on my feet
I keep looking through deserts and forests
Double-checking, the path I repeat
But as far as the eye can see
There is not a clue that looks like you
Uncharted territory is all there is
If only I knew
Where the universe hides creatures like you
If only I would have tried harder
To treat you better
To have made things right
And to have kept you besides me
Only then could I peacefully come home
But now it’s a little too late
And you’re long gone
Never to return again.
I’m in love with this odd rhymie thing, it makes the poem flow but still have this sort of raw edge, you know?
It was very easy to relate to because of the words you chose so well and the emotions that jump out at you.
I’m… wow.
jst woww.. ^_^
Thank you a gazillion times!!! xD
