***
|
|
|
|
somewhere on the other side of the world
|
|
you hold a little sliver of me in your chest
|
|
wedged by your heart through a thousand battles
|
|
survived not one less
|
|
|
|
and I, you, the same
|
|
but at home, I feel the pain
|
|
of transmitted burdens,
|
|
wings soaked with rain
|
|
|
|
somewhere on the other side of the world
|
|
I hold a little sliver of you in my soul
|
|
but even through dimensional curtains,
|
|
your warmth can't beat the cold
|
|
|
|
and I worry that, one day
|
|
two aliens will show up at my bedroom door
|
|
signaling even before they knock
|
|
that you'll come home nevermore
|
|
|
|
we met each other in a winter haze
|
|
not twenty-four hours before final-failing pain
|
|
but you didn't care, whisked through dark gates
|
|
barely five minutes passed; several weeks next to wait
|
|
|
|
and I tumbled into love, burning hot as hell
|
|
as I tumbled down deep into war's well
|
|
when will it all end? nobody can say
|
|
to protect you, only to fictional gods can I pray
|
