I lost you. Damn, so early. Oh, so young. So sad, such a pity. I used to like the way you touched my face… Now your hands caress nothing but the silence of the shadows, hoping that someday they’d reach my arms. But that cannot be. Oh no, cannot. Forbidden. Dead and gone.
If there was nothing to be done, then why can’t I seem to understand your departure? I don’t get it. I don’t know it either. Inevitable. Was it? Really? I regret my cowardice, my feelings, my heart, my mind. No matter what I do now, it’s no longer important. All dead and gone.
I’d run after you. You know it. I also know you see me. I know you read through my pointless lines of ink. You know everything, yet nothing. I bet you can’t tell what’s inside this heart. You think you do know? Nothing, everything faded… the secret died long ago. Winter has taken the crown. Oh, the void. All so dead and gone.
And I’d ask you to save me. But there’s nothing to be saved. Forsaken in the sands of infinity, awaiting the arrival of the one who was not to come. Not today, not tomorrow. My oh my, listen, breath, tell me something. A word, a verse, a single look. I search through the corners of my mind, looking for those beautiful eyes. Those lips… so warm, so alive… and I found them… dead and gone.
Can you hear it? It’s the sound of a tired soul, whose feet have traveled land and sea, trying to find you again. Oh, so stupid, so ingenuous, to think you’d be still there for me. I trusted every single phrase, I gave up my soul, title, all I owned… and I got only the eco of dying song… it stopped. Dead and gone, too.
Were you to hear my prayers, you’d do nothing. Can’t. Impossible. Proud. I might have changed… but you’re still the best thing I once knew, even though you’re so far away now. I know you won’t return… And I’ll not search for you again, for what’s lost is lost and what’s dead is dead. That night we died, and now, we’re dead and gone.
