Afro Sensei - Elephant

You know just what you want to say
Afraid I'll feel some kind of way
But intuition tells no lies
Speak on what you feel inside

And I tried
But in the end you still felt alone
And you tried
We ran too far to find our way back home
Letting go while there's still love
Salvage what is left
Before it turns to stone
Letting go and moving on
Falling free headlong into a new normal

Our future days now in the past
The world we made reduced to ash
But in the ruins flowers bloom
The seed we planted has deep roots

You kiss me for the last time
The levees of my eyes almost break
As I
See memories rushing by and by
Flickering then going dark like fireflies
Won't chase what's lost
Not worth the cost
Yearning for what was tortures a tender heart
Realize that we've come to an end
Let the truth wash over I'll start again

I am winter
Still and hibernating
Chilled not frozen
Alone but not lonely
New territory
Frightening, fascinating self-discovery

The space between us had no name
We gave it voice
It's had its say
Honored our grief
Tended the scars
There's nothing else to do but part
