Where Are You?


Slowly, you're fading... I can't see your face anymore. You speak but I hear no sound. You touch me and my heart starts racing only to drop like a stone You are an illusion Come back to me, I can't take it anymore...I need you. I look in the mirror and I see a face but it's not mine...it's yours I speak but it's not my voice...it's yours I run my hand along my skin but it is not my touch I feel...it's yours. What is this? I see it now..you've been here all along You are me...you are apart of me You are inside of me mother... You always were. Though I can't feel you... Though I can't hear you... Though I can't see you... You are there, in my voice.. In my eyes... In my soul... I can't go through life without you. I can live without seeing you... I can live without hearing you... I can live without feeling your touch... But I can never forget you..
