We are seperated

We are seperated
Lying between us a sea of time
Were it so easy I would let down these sails
Set my course for where you are
Were it so easy...

Too much in the way
If not just this giant sea
Treacherous waters
Whirlpools and storms
I'd battle them I would

Yet in the end I fear
Crossing a sea of time
A dangerous one at that
Would take far too long

My goal lies in the opposite direction
I can cross no sea of time
For you see
I simply have none

For you at least

Look both ways...

A forward thought
Flashed in those eyes

We all saw it

We new the decisions you would make
Some even tried to warn you

You wouldn't be stopped by any force

A forward thought
A backwards walk
A head in the clouds

You never saw the car

But you sure felt it

Thoughts plague me. Words leave me.

I fear we have grown distant
You and I

I wrote

You were too busy

It seems impossible to reach you

Yes I see you
And yes we talk

But this facade we maintain
Isn't fooling anyone (certainly not me)

It seems we are seperated

An iron wall perhaps?
No
A glass wall would be more fitting

We can see clearly
We can talk clearly
But we will never truly connect

I'd cross
But I think
You'd be the death of me

Stop me before I get too far ahead of myself.

Her head was distant
Eyes glazed
The words springing from her lips
Were not hers at all

Helpless she watched
Helpless she rambled on

Nothing could be done

People died
Because of this you know
Wars started
Countless lives ruined

Ruined because she couldn't
Because they couldn't
Because you couldn't

She really wasn't a killer
Just a witness
Too timid to do something

And she watched
Her words made them crumble
Fold in on themselves
They shattered

But she could do nothing
Her lips did all the talking
