Lost In a Shadow

Oh smell, where have you gone?
You were blown away in a breeze
To be tossed and turned
For all eternity
Lost in a dense, blue shadow
Which is played by my flute
My flute plays my blue sadness
For you were torn from me like a scarf on a windy day
I call to you, yet you do not hear
You cannot be captured
Your presence has been spread through all existence
The geese of dawn are ever calling your name
The blue sky swallows them up
You felt inferior to the other senses
We tried not to let on
Now a lost nothing
Blow away in a breeze
Tossed and turned
For all eternity
