Slipping Away

Slipping Away

I can feel,
you slipping,
away from me.

As I lose,
your heart, and,
your memory.

Though I try,
to keep them,
all within me.

They escape,
from my clouds,
of reverie.

I can feel,
you slipping,
away from me.

I'm fading,
from your mind.
Out of your dreams.

Though I chase
all the hopes,
that I held tight.

They flicker.
Fading till,
they're out of sight.

I can feel,
you slipping,
away from me.

Living life
lost in lust,
and fantasy.

Never knowing,
what you've lost,
till it's too late.

I'll pray that,
your soul lives,
it does not break.

I can feel,
you slipping,
away from me.
