There She Goes

I don't know why I was inspired to include this, but tonight I found myself playing a song I wrote for someone a few weeks before she moved away. In this weird time of perpetual, slow transition, I think about those times when I was very present...and I had to write about it.

There She Goes

I see my friend is leaving

Gone already, she is

For whatever I knew has left me

Already

But where do I go from here?

I stand here, mixed and conflicted,

Wondering what it is that I did

Or didn't do

I ask my ocean for forgiveness

And there it sits, rolling.

Because I stopped walking,

Mesmerized,Inspired,

Feeling a whole sky of emotion,

Feeling more of myself than ever,

And all the while becoming obsolete.

So here I stand, ripping inside,

Dropping memories to the sand,

And I let go,

Saying goodbye to my friend yet again,

And there she is.

I see my friend leaving

Gone already, she was

As I remember her when she loved me.

(but no more)

And my heart drains itself of all its love,

To paint the best picture of her I know

In this moment,

And there she goes.
