Wish You Were Here

Where did you ever go off to?

Looked past the ridge and you were gone

I always thought I'd miss your voice

I can't even remember your name now.

Were you always this person?

I must have missed the change in cast

Couldn't be the venue

Restlessly drifting, apart yet afloat

You once give me reason

Now only pause

Why's a question keeps repeating

Lifetime's worth of regret in a series of territorial squaws

Think of icy perfection

Sensed rats climbing in the escape pods

Square your life, double the edges

Send me to the abyss

Launch them to the sun

Scattered across stars

Do you see the same ones?

As I?

Can hear me think your name?
