Soulmate

Don’t try to say this isn’t happening.
Let’s not pretend that we don’t notice anymore.
This silver lining gives me hope, this silver lining’s
Burning holes in the back of my head. ¶ I have a
Soulmate, she calls to me, I must keep vigil so I
Can see, the bleeding sunset, I’m home at last, I’ve
Learned my lessons, now let me pass. ¶ Forgive I
Know not what I do. Forget me not I’ve always had
A path to choose and lights to guide me on the road
And others who can take the blame when I don’t
Know. ¶ I hear my soulmate call out to me, I must
Keep vigil so I can see, the bleeding sunset through
Eyes of glass, I’ve learned my lessons, I’m home at
Last. ¶ I ache, I listen, I search in faces I don’t know.
I burn for many people, we burn, so many people…
¶ I hear my soulmate call out to me. I kept my vigil
And I can see, the bleeding sunset, my time’s passed.
I’ve learned my lessons, I’m home at last.
