She avoids me
like an allergy she finds
in my mind
It's so cold and dusty here
Her silence
It froze me in place
in a space so gray
It's so hard to escape from here
Time seems so distant to me
like I'm in some kind of travesty
Dreams hold on to me
and I'm in some kind of fantasy
I tried to
breach this distance
but it caused so much more resistance
Now I can
focus on
my future
and my goals and dreams
Now I can see things clearly
I wasn't strong enough to move
I will call on You now
You will lift me into the skies
