Things that Fall Away

Leaving today will bring the tears.

Tomorrow arrives, where is the sorrow?

All the things we didn’t know,

is leaving without warning.

A loss, they say, implies a found.

You push me further into the earth.

You can’t comform my soul to spurt,

to shift and turn, refusing rebirth.

The questions are hidden,

I see the lies,

The trap is deeper

than we realize.

When I die, 

When I go,

my tears are mine.

a loss I know.

Tomorrow’s sorrow is not yours to wallow.

Hush, my dear, leave room to cry.

The exit appears, outsmarting the spies. 

There’s the horizon, the one we can’t deny,

I dare not, dare not to follow.

the one we refuse to blind our eyes.
