Yesterday I tried to bolt
Run away from a kindred spirit.
Lock up my world and toss the keys away.

I was on way to doing just that
When I looked out my window and just sat
I can’t keep doing this, I said to myself.
Letting my intensity control me
Running forward at breakneck speed
Only to turn and run the other direction.

I was writing him an e mail
Trying to put all my things back to be seen
When I looked up and saw he was leaving
No more stumbling around.
A goodbye paragraph for the world to see.
I touched my screen and a tear formed,
Then I blamed myself……

I know it’s not me.
Yet..... How can my words,
Some electronic pulses and interests
Touch anyone?
I’m just a girl, unimportant.

unimportant.....

A kindred spirit gone away
And I lay another muse to rest
In my mind.....
