you were in this World
i sit and see it in your eyes,
a mirror of mine,
a want to find
Home
to be free,
a want to leave
home
and to be set free.
i sit and see on your face,
blank and rippling in the storm,
no recognition of our
World,
no face to show to our
world.
you run and hide yourself.
i sit sit and see your picture,
propped up on a closed casket,
and i think that if i hadn't
Changed
would i have made a difference?
Would i have
changed
your mind,
and convinced you to find a
Home
in this
World
with me?
