fade

I am superfluous
me and my body
my checkered spirit, my ribbon soul

it's dark and this song is pretty
all the things I didn't say
are tied to my hair

your breath remains against my ear
its cold now, with time
like the memory of snow

I am superfluous
the things within me are brimming
though, I never fade

I remain like the moon
silent and patiently watching (loving)
I never fade.
