Pareidolia

All that I remember Turning over Static tone, an airlock door An echo of a kindness I would know You had sunk against the wall We were motionless We were in the scene Unaware of its meaning At action I would go You authored an instruction A catalogue of everything you left Before you could do If you could let me try If you could give me time I can make things right A letter returned to sender (we tried) I had offered its destruction 'Cause everything reminds us of us still Stuck and trying not to grow The quiet way we let go Echoed back An ire I would know Then again again again again Again I guess it was me But we couldn't know its futility The time I spent just to get just as ill again (The time always eludes us now, always escapes somehow) I don't have the words, (I want to go, I know) I don't feel right Everyone is waiting Everyone is staring Everyone's aware, just give them something Fine, we lied, okay with it Unloved, unseen, but There was permanence in our desire to be Then I caught it A reflection I don't know Up at night, rewind the replay and overanalyze It didn't do you any good did it? Besides, the data points never seemed to Actualize a change, a benefit You tried to emulate what you thought the rest were like But everyone seemed to overemphasize The feelings we're all supposed to get Regret It didn't fit it didn't fit it didn't Sit right that everyone's supposed to have this Insight, with no developmental fist fight You walk on the set so unprepared to face the stage lights Words never even read let alone memorized Fed the lines in time but it doesn't sound like something I would say I really tried to make us all believe it But they all could hear the way I hesitated when I spoke No getting over it Things aren't the same now I just need Some more Time All that I can remember now A tidal vertigo An empty row A silence I would know A departure A deduction Reliant on devices never intended Brace the fall Cabin lights fading as it scrapes the hull (a violence I would know) Pace your crawl The water's coming in already half full Even though Surrounded by ocean inescapable (a rescue wouldn't show) Dreamed a kindness I will know
