WIwTiHtOhUT from Hypnagogic Dayblooms by Teach Them To Weep

Fading light
I watched the life drain from your eyes
I was praying to anything willing to listen

Behind a veil while they carried your casket
I imagined an ocean merging with static

Let the waves close in on me
Let me drown
You said that time is a circle
We all come back around

Daily conversations
Nighty cabernet
This morning, I planted a garden over your grave

But I can't wait forever
My patience fading with my youth
and If I cannot bring you back
I have a plan to come to you

I've tried everything to reach you
The planchette only spelling help
Like I told you in the garden
I would follow you to hell

A lonely seance in the summer
An empty seat, table for two
Our song repeating in the attic
The needle wearing out the grooves

Strawberry wine
A couple Quaaludes
Ketamine lines
I keep on thinking I see you

I cannot wait any longer
I'm coming to you

Comatose carbon host
Reception expanded
The portal close

360 degrees without turning
Watched as my vessel lay cold on the gurney
Images of past expeditions
Surrounded by tunnels of light

And now we have forever
We can go anywhere we please
Together slipping through the ether
We'll never reach our apogee

Lights
florescent lights
Consciousness fading in and out

Flashes of light
Oscillation
Strobing to rhythms of distant suns
I am the universe
Within and without
