    Author's Note: I wrote this 2 summers ago during a period of "Get Him the HELLLL out of My Head." I think this one turned out nicely though. Good flow. My dad has written a song for it too! And I think it so far has turned out awesomely (though his is in 3rd person). Got the Blues... but I will survive! sort of feel, with a dash of Hedwig.


And I Walk

 

 

And I walk
Against the wind
With no other way out
For I am pinned

I close my eyes darling
I close them tight
To shut out the warm wind
That is your ghost

It chills my bones
Where you have seeped
If I can’t touch you
I don’t want to feel you

From waist up
I walk unhindered
But below
Nothing but circles

There are times
Where my hair is not ruffled
When the world is calm
And the windmills stop

And I walk
Half a woman
The half made
Before you

And I breathe
Still air
Amnesia spreads
Throughout my limbs

Numb to where you touched me
Where you held my hand
To where you lead me
And where it took me

But as I walk I always stumble
Across some familiar breeze
That smells of you
And makes me stop

How could I forget? How can I not?
I’ll cut myself in two
One for me so I may live
and one just for you
