– "Where have you been? my friend"
— " Say again? "
– " Have you not heard? Have you not listened? "
— " Much in doubt to answer either "
– " Bother not! Fresher you look "
— " Thanks, so do you "
– " Got a word to say about not so long ago? "
— " Quite a few! "
to comprehend life is to live not; some may argue
you can’t comprehend what you make an ingredient for.
from further out, if you ask me all the same vague is that mixture
bleaker still for from it a color saw fitting to look from away.
I have seen her, him and all of them through a lens of my own.
prettier they appeared to be, for to self-deciet I am so prone.
and they have asked the silent one, what says you about all?
prettier, full of compliments were my thoughts as I recall.
darker still, seemed my days come the break of every dawn.
for in my dreams of the real, I have found colors.
longer dreams, and a darker wake was the contrast my eyes shown.
and in disbelief, defiant was the mind I possessed.
for it talked down to me the facts
simplified them matters to fulfill a task
sitting me down from my full-fledged adventures.
to instead speak of mono-tones.
binary blows off the horns.
– " Man, how about a game? "
— " I’ll go chalk up our names "
– " What for? "
— " Isn’t there a list to queue? "
– " Well, No. for it’s only me and you. "
So is that desire to be perfect?
Waiting for onething only you, need to seek.
Never though required, but one pain self-induced
for those in pain, wake up one day to be unique.
and further apart from all that they need.
