Detatched
by September Stories

Even through a crowd of a hundred people
I still feel alone
Like everyone can see through me
But no one can really see me
We weren't made to blend,
But to thrive on our differences
These thoughts creep up from the back of my skull
In the part where I tucked my favorite little picture of you
Taken on a day long forgotten,
But maybe for the best
I just wish I could say the same for you

It all ends the same
There you still remain
Through dark I'll follow you
Am I the me that you knew

Writing seems to be the only time when I take honesty as my first
Writing of lost love and lost attainment
Everything lost but I'll never forget how we tried
I'll never forget how you looked at me with those eyes
Those eyes that tired of me before I could let go
That image of you stained into my brain
It's taken years to forget,
But all it's brought is clarity

It all ends the same
There you still remain
Through dark I'll follow you
Am I the me that you knew
