All I Can Be

Outside My window pane Rain falls Days Undo Time Itself Sun light Morning ends Nights fall Lastly I give Into You Ruminants I start to Forget them Mirrors, Luggage I’m leaving without you Time sees what we cannot My eyes lie open Across your chest with visions to blurry to see Is this all that I can be This illusion Is all that I can see It’s All that I can’t be More than more I remain unchanged And you dear Always stay the same Downstairs Too slowly I chase un-doubtly My emptiness Has filled you Ghostly I step closer To what we shared Sometimes The oceans And images Call to me Winding into Treasures Hidden Beyond your eyelids Secrets are so rare Behind my curtains I’m open to all things Until you sooth me As your voice sings All that I can hear As eyes lie open Across your chest a visions to blurry to see Is this all that I can be This illusion Is all that I can see It’s All that I can’t be
