are you real? are you anything of flesh, do you breathe?
you knew me, as though i was a piece of you, something youād been missing.
where does it come from, the thread that ties us together?
i see you now, as i saw you then.
sometimes i think i would eat you if i could.
what am i if not a jaw full of teeth?
what do we eat, if not history?
what feeds our engines, if not fairy tales?
a story that refuses to end is not a story. it is a prison.
what is the nature of ownership?
if anything, i believe that i own you.
do i not have you leashed?
you will never find me, you will never catch me.
there will be no trace of me left for you to hold.
and by what nameless name do you like to be called?
i want out of the dark just as much as you do.
i am not your torch, nor am i your guidelight.
a good pet is only worth the distance her leash might stretch.
what prayer crosses your lips?
do you still dream of freedom?
is love freedom? or only a longer leash?
love is a leash that pulls both ways.
i thought we could do anything if we were together.
if this was a fair story, you would have already come back to me.
i was lost when i came here first. so some of me will always be lost.
last time you were here , you just kept saying you were lost.
i went in for coffee and most of me never came out.
