fractals

pulled into another dream that isn't mine

a thread gone through the silver needle's eye

and sewn back to you

only to be ripped apart

one heart

now two

so do we get what we deserve?

or are we made of nothing more

than fractals of light shooting in the dark?

moving faster than we ever have before

we're chasing after a glimpse of all that we adore

a moment of calm

my touch on your arm

whispering sleep now

sleep now

the river's flowing backwards

and everyone's an actor

in too deep now

deep now

reaching for the surface

crying out for purpose

so do we get what we deserve?

or are we made of nothing more

than fractals of light shooting in the dark?

you and me

we're just plots on the curve

a shining spectacle to observe

spiraling fractures on a silver arc

so how many more ways

can you cut me out just to bring me to life?

and how many more times

will i subdivide before i'm not the sum of my parts?

and you don't recognize me anymore

so do we get what we deserve?

or are we made of nothing more

than fractals of light shooting in the dark?

you and me

we're just plots on the curve

a shining spectacle to observe

spiraling fractures on a silver arc

sleep now
