ash land

ash   land

i travel to the place where never once your name's heard.
i whisper the sound
Y-O-U
breathless
- my secret treasure
I hold dear

hush
not too loud
hush
just enough
to keep me going
the howling path
these tiny feet, firmly pressed against the earth
i know where i am going
why i am here
why we are apart
hush
just enough
to preserve your pure ignorance
the determined road
your dignified steps, firmly mark the ground
you are sure where you are heading
why you must leave
but no...
you willl never know
why I let you go

i travel to the land where our love's a fairy tale
where all faces - a pleasant surprise, all smile - a genuine bliss
where no past memories haunt
where "us" don't exist
only me... and my cherished story
of the modern tragic ending
kept in a locker
whose key's
eternally
lost
