It took a mile of mutilation

It took a mile of mutilation
To master getting past, getting over you
And I saw your kids today
Furthermore a progress in a vision of distance
Pacing fast, with busy hands
Laughing like you’d miss it

And I could say I never knew you well
How I miss your presence
Those clouds you carried
The nicotine smell of your entrance
The trip to your moving beat

You were young like me
(Like I am today)
When you broke for the emotion
That feeling like love
For the felicity the summer blood brings
But how its still chilly here on your front yard
While we let the traffic run

And how slow the world got
How lonesome the memories
As I forgot the false hues of your long hair
Hiding the blue of your eyes
While you pretend to sleep
And I brush with little hands to help the one I loved

And I always dreaded this dedication
This in remembrance of you
