Riding in on it's swooping steed
Haste-full overnight
Wearing a different mask
So i may not recognize
Invisible till its felt
It can not face me
Just as I can not face it
Yet we are old friends
Familiar to pain
I fear we have reached a point in time
Where I must pull of her mask
I know change must be a woman
For she is unstable
Unpredictable
just as are the pieces of myself
The pieces that fall our of my heart
The pieces that can never be recovered
Perhaps Change and I
We should sit by the water
Feed the ducks together
If she insists on wearing a mask
We could make one together
Rainbows and Glitter
Something I could see coming
Just let me see you coming Change
