One by One

I can see you standing there

Feel you everywhere

As the moments pass by

Quickly

Swiftly

I put my hand against your face

But you’re not real

The feel of your skin isn’t real

What I see isn’t really there

And everything begins to disappear

One by one

We fade away

And the years go on

Leaving us with a bitter happiness

The universe soon follows

Dwindling

Diminishing

So I close my eyes

And imagine what will keep me alive

In a place where life doesn’t exist

Yes, you’re there

You’re always there
