Fleeting away,
Higher and higher,
Cloud to cloud;
Just one more look of inebriation.
Floating around,
Further, beyond,
High off the ground;
Drowned in pleas of desperation
You look at me, weary;
With puffy cheeks
And heavy, stone-like eyes...
I call to you,
But my voice subsides
In a million hides in your skin...
And I will slip away, sail afar,
Far from the seething reaches of your voice
And I won't be lingering...
In your hands, in your hair,
In your hard, heavy voice
I will no longer be there
From your heart, from your mind,
From the tips of your fingers,
I will be gone
I will steal away, vamoose
Recede like the wind
And all you'll feel is a breeze.
