When you expierence a great distress are you the same person when its over...
Do I know you

Have I seen you before

A message in a bottle

Washed up on the shore




I know your presence

But your appearance is not known

The shadows of night

Of living on your own




Your eyes are like light

Your smile a beacon

Of fighting the waves

To feel your muscles weaken




Where do I know you from

What is your name

The long lost treasure

The end never being the same




You laugh at my rambles

Cover me in a comforting hug

Drinking away the misery of the world

Hooked on a drug




I look out the window

You stand by my side

The lighthouse for the sailors

The fake smile I use to hide




Our eyes close

Are thoughts are lost

Memories awaken

We remember the unforgivable cost




I know you

But the question is do you know me

For ive been gone for so long

A minds mystery
