Traffic Signs
All the signs pointed right,
we seemed to be following the same path forever
The change never seemed like it would come
and I was feeling closer to you than ever
Suddenly, everything stopped and you made a left turn
I stop moving, falling still, I turn to you
You look me in the eyes,
and see right through me.
You turn left, and i turn right
We part our ways and suddenly I realize I'm alone
There are no footsteps following my own
I feel as if my legs will give out, but I keep moving
as the emptiness sets in, I keep following our little path
hoping someday to hear footsteps beside my own again.
I look up to find you walking towards me,
and suddenly I'm whole again...
But you keep walking, you don't recognize me,
and I realize I'm not smiling anymore.
As I walk this road, alone,
I begin to wonder and daydream away
Before I know it, I'm flying and hearing the wings of the one beside me
As I look down below me, I see you and smile...
Parting our ways gave me wings.
