Limbo

How many times do I have to pass through the same place, Till it becomes familiar? Limbo I have been walking through a million places; A million mistaken glances; This soul is weary! "Hey," they say "Hie,' I say And then I am trying. Leave me alone; All this is pointless! Limbo Then you, I met you in a place I had no business being; A place that I would never be; What began, A first glance? A first emotion? A first calling? A first something.....? Was it being drawn? Were we both searching? Hmmmmm! Punctuation; glance, look; stare? Limbo. You don't look ordinary. What have you seen? What have you heard? What do you fear? What do you hate? What do you love? What do you believe? This bottle in your hands; Why are you drinking? I want to get to know you; Heaven through hell. I know I return tomorrow; Will you come and find me? Did we forget? Or we simply didn't try? Why didn't you? Pointless? Limbo I saw you once, And I was already missing you. I only looked at you once, And I was already needing you. I only saw you once And I was already begging. Limbo! What I am looking for is without definition.
