A Thousand Times Of You

A Thousand Times Of You

You’ll not see me around
I’ve kept that distance now
Learnt the strongest goodbyes
Are always unsaid how

It took a little practice
For this disciplined mind
To grind my thoughts to dust
Lest that serpent unwind

This is the path I’ve chosen
It leads me away from you
I kill myself over each day
In agony for what I had to do

Yet the rebel heart cries
Drags me away in its sway
Helpless, I walk thinking
A thousand times of you today
