Absent Minded
Ghost
Roaming the empty halls
stardust is all I've found
memories of long ago
and I'm forgotten
but homebound
Closing these dusty cupboards
like everything
nothing really mattered
sometimes i can hear my own teeth chatter
and i know I'm too far away
from the places i should be sleeping
Reliving this sacred dance
close to the eclipse
but i have no chance
basking in my ignorance
I know i am indifferent
to everything that surrounds me
as these memories overwhelm me
Opening the closed doors
back to the way
everything was before
and now i know
I'm lost for sure
to everything stretching open
inside of me.
