People keep changing into the same person they've always been

poetry

By lady gagaPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

I close my eyes in order to open them

I see her below my tree

I experience an entire life

Within seconds

Time does not follow me here

Sundrops

Sundrops

Sundrops

Dancing and living and dancing and dying all in one breath

She has been below the willow

Praying for me

I can not say how long

There is no such thing as time

I'm sorry I did not come sooner

She looks at me - I'm just happy to see you

She means it.

That makes me sad.

She doesn't know how to be angry

If I had a thousand arms

I still could not hold her long enough

Im sorry

Im sorry

She hugs me only because that's what she wants to do

She is all alone

Just like me

She takes me on a walk

And I take her on one too

She doesn't know me yet

But I know her

And I have dreamt her dreams

I am sorry for her.

She grows up as the tree she sits beneath

Weeping and beautiful.

And moving so easily with the wind

I become her eyes

Just like I have always been.

I see.

I see.

She starts to change

And all the sudden she stays the same

We both have been crying

Only I have been crying

I am alone.

And she is beside me.

Sundrops

Sundrops

Sundrops

I miss her everyday.

You can't save me

I know

We laugh and hug and die all in one breath
