read my lips

trapped in this game

i can only admire the details of it
closely and surely
they’re all made of dust
as am i 
fly away with the wind
my essence will foolishly wish
to come back

but not I
the person I am today
has decided
no more Earth games
take me elsewhere 
into oblivion 
take me where “I” no longer exists

i have no dreams no desire
to
BE
i leave that to the birds and trees 
….
don’t worry i am not in a hurry
i’ll stick around a little bit longer
for the kids <3 <3

i won’t tell you when i leave though
i’ll just close my eyes
and in one single breath 
will speak out my last truth
can you hear it?

read my lips.
