"I blocked my mind to you,
Stemmed the trembles of fear you induced in me,
I shook off the emotions you brought out,
I gave way to tears and then a wan smile,
I breathed in the memories,
And breathed them out again,
Through the mist of my breath,
I see them leave,
As I sit, in the comfort of my home,
Sunlight streaming in through the windows,
Wafting through wisps of white curtains,
As I sit and watch through eyes, a golden brown that you once adored, which you worshipped for their ability to read your soul, you said,
That made you lose yourself in them, you said,
I raised my hands, Palm to Palm in prayer, closed my eyes, bent my head in reverence to the benevolent Sun,
Said a prayer, both for you and her, and the her who was arriving,
I sat in silence, listening to the sweet, mellifluous tones of the neighbouring guard's flute,
I released you, who was captive in my mind,
Or was is it you who held my mind and heart captive?
Or I, through my imploring heart, was keeping but a shadow of a memory alive as an illusion of captivity?
All that didn't matter anymore,
I wiped you out from all sources of data,
Then let you in again, to be a mere illusion,
Only to let you go again ... Since I lost you."
