I know deep down inside
There’s someone I recall
Someone who left to hide
Before the change to fall
Got to find the voice to shout
No matter what the cost
Somehow let the someone out
Before the voice is lost

I know it never ends
Eyes blinking it all away
But the pain never mends
And his words go astray
The rift opens wider yet
Bridges burning, falling down
Crushing reality starts to set
And curses the broken ground

I know that someone’s here
There are traces in the ash and smoke
Seems like a grey and truthful tear
As the remembrance begins to choke
The pieces of someone left to fade
To scatter as something less
By constant purging in slow degrade
As he becomes nothingness

I know the pieces fit
If only for a moment today
I know that this is it
The moment has gone away

I like this very much. A moment of remembrance it seems. Well written with a gentle flow.

oh yes...I know that someone--smiling, sometimes I see someone's eyes in the mirror--and for a brief second, I remember.

I love this--so glad I went looking this morning, I went "seeking" this morn--back to the top--well written stuff here!

I love the finale
In fact, I love the whole piece!

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.
