I See You

I will always, deep where there are no birds flying

Love you when there are no other breathing things

Taking life out of me

Because I think you know…

It’s hard to breath right now

I know you walk down the pathway because it’s been paved

(Foolishly I will be there)

Where the shit has turned to stone

Where the smell of you has taken many forms

Where the word LOVE has become a statue

I stand there, right inside it

I see you

I will always, deep where there are no other yous

Be under your…

Under your strength and under your smoke

Breathing a deep, deep sigh

I walk by the tree that has lost it roots from too much hurt

The pain, my window pain isn’t quite seeing you like I see you

That is because you’re always walking

Walking passed it and on it and in it

I see you

I will always, deep where there are only burning branches

Because I don’t mind…

My tired legs have been pulsating

And I have been poisoning myself

with more thoughts of you

It’s okay that you can’t dig

It’s okay that you won’t be

Until I open my eyes for good

And close them for bad and badly hurt doing so

I was born to bruise

Since, wait

I see you

I will always, deep inside fight against you- with you

Because I love you

I see you

I do.
