Woorden: Adem. You And Moon.

Searching

I wore out my telescope

And I nearly gave up hope of finding anything



Discovery

Was an accidental thing

A reflection slipping in

To the corner of my eye



I saw you

And moon

And hope flooded through me

I just needed proof



I saw you and moon

I had to get closer

For a look



Alone and

A universe away

I was drawn to make my way to where the living are



My eyelids

Filled with hypnogogic shapes

And my body wracked with shakes

I travelled light years

In heart beats



I saw you and moon

Dancing together against dark blue

I saw you and moon

I never felt lonely ?til I saw you



Been making

Music

With instruments

Of science

Distracted

And happy

And so self

Reliant



Then I saw you and moon

And hope flooded through me

And I chased proof

But I left, I left too soon

?cause light is a liar

And so are you

I saw you and moon

But the image was older

Than the truth

When I arrived

I found only tombs ?cause light is a liar

Telling old truths

Having had something to aim for

Has left me lost.
