Don’t look into my eyes or you will see
How long I’ve been gone
That I can’t remember where home is
Don’t read me
I am not finished
And my words are wrong
Don’t dig me up
I am not buried
I can still breathe
Don’t point me the way
My eyes will wander
I will get lost
I do not know
If you will wait
I do not know
What will be left
I do not know
If I will remember when I see it
But I promise
The tide will bring me back
And the wind will point in your direction
You will see me take those last few steps to your door
I will breathe the air I know and have no more miles to tread alone
The hours I missed will be gone and nothing
When I make it home
