What the Ripple Sees

I saw your eyes Wish I was there To give you the embrace that you deserve I saw a light A shiny tear The end you seeked, does it bring you to peace? If only you can see, your histories remain in me A signal sprouting A signal growing A signal blooming I walk through the path Fingertips pollinating The flowers spreading The flowers singing The flowers watching Someday I hope to see you here Far far away, countless light-years No need to hurry, my dear And if you're lost in disbelief, I'll sit beside you quietly I'll hold your hand squeezing tightly And let your tears dampen my sleeve By the time you are calm, I am no where to be found As if I was never around And if you're screaming silently, I'll kiss away the uncertainty I'll rock you gently in my arms until you're asleep In your dreams I disappeared A ripple of floral scent lingers Then I saw a world Conflicting views Friction between the hearts I saw a war Once living corpse A rotten truth A fuel to your fires Tiny wavelengths A ripple crying A ripple smiling A ripple longing Someday I hope to see you here Far far away, countless light-years As long as you truly desire Goodbye, goodbye Please don't miss me You'll be alright Do not worry Sometimes I'm nowhere Sometimes I'm everywhere Not too far nor too near And if you look down to your feet, I'm waving at you secretly A shadow of you, a shadow of me Walking side by side steadily By the time you are strong, I am no where to be found As if I was never around And if your world is on repeat, I'll love each version of you the same Hoping one day your lives can be perfectly mundane Even in a million years My ripples flow wherever you go
