I cannot breath
Though I feel my body gasping
Air flowing in and out
I cannot move
Though I go from place to place
Propelled by blood which pounds my veins
Even though it freezes
Through the ships I have never found small
I feel like I am caged
And you far outside the bars
A speck on my horizon
I cannot see
Though everything around me
Rushes at my eyes and blinds them
I cannot think
Though thoughts fly through my head
My world stops
Though I drive the world around me
Time stops
Though the hours go relentlessly
As I wait for your return
Before your absence tears me apart
