missing someone you don't know.

people as thoughts, places as people

I miss you all the time.
Even when your right here with me,
and yes my brother it gets annoying.

Please take care of yourself,
because I know now that we can't.
Before we go back to the darkness,
we should harness our armored lights.

At times I get the feeling
the one I see in ceilings,
when I'm awake and already dreaming.

The nightmares decide who was right.
They creep into our bedrooms at night
through a black hole in our old roof,
and sketch new thoughts in the old soot,
from fires from years ago.

Will you creep into the house tonight?
I miss you most of the time.
Its only a moment now,
until that chain breaks from our eyes.

You swing away towards the sky
but are always back with another smile.
