Shooting past the heavens
studying every empty space
between every star found
and the shiny clouds.

I cast my gaze,
my eyes like a worm
hooked on the line
of a fisherman's rod,
plunging into the vast ocean
of space, shooting past the heavens
studying each corner between
every star found and
all the shiny clouds I could see,

wondering if you're out here
with me.

It feels lonely out here,
void of all but
the slightest glimmers to
my left and
the brightest twinkling from
my right.

It's so empty out here,
for a moment I was
certain I had been
looking inside
myself.

Do you remember this, or has it not happened yet?
You called me when I was new,
before this part.
All I see are remnants

of my warm burning core,
I couldn't hold it anymore.

Forever

Even after the pain
all the blood shed

My dried eyes and sore throat
tired from screaming at the moon

Looking around the room
as if I would find
you, creeping in the corner
swearing under my breath
I could hear your voice

Breaking myself down, everything I am
washed up on the floor, wondering
how many years ago did you strum
your guitar, singing Doll Parts?

Even after everything
if they gave me a chance to rewind time
I wouldn't dare twist my fate

I've learned you're only
gone, dead
when you're forgotten.

How could I ever forget you?
