One of many

One of many voices passing through your life

One of many you grasp for without holding on to what you can’t catch

You tear me up, roots and all, and let me go to float in the river of life

And so it goes.

As minutes turn into days without time passing for you

Tell me again about how time is connected to space

As soon as you fell silent I desperately watch the clock twist

I knew it would be eons before we spoke again

No matter if you were just silent to catch your breath

One of many, that is what I will be

One of many I will disappear in the thick of the mass

Calculating the relativity between space and bodies

Trying to understand why I met you in the first place

I don’t deal with regrets

And I don’t deal with deceit

I simply walk away
