8,000 miles away.
I stood and stared inside.
 everything was there,
 but i knew it was
   Gone.

 Lost somewhere between
latex and rollercoasters.
  i should retrieve
 your legacy,

i should reclaim it.

But i have swallowed spikes
and intelligent conversation.

the words get lost inside.
Thought slips through the
punctured stillness of my
  mind.

they take the form of tears,
i sing to you this way.

how everything is gone
and nothing will remain.

 I feel so invisible.
mostly lost and invincible.

This gave me a strong sense of being seperated from reality. Almost like waiting to rejoin the world after a coma, hrm. Interesting read. ~Ship!
