Logical Knowledge

Scribbles on my mind

from the words left unsaid

like a tatty notebook 

I'm never read.

You're not here to speak them to

so they've collected overtime

and I left the door open for you

but my offer you kindly declined.

Our friendship I may have misused

as a respite from the storms

now the fact I came to you

means nothing at all. 

Loyalty was just a word

before I met you

but now the memories of trust

I'm piecing back with glue.

You vanished like Houdini

and I never knew "the prestige"

all I know is when I was falling

you were there to catch me. 

Time went by and I've had to learn

to delete you from my mind

although now I catch myself

I wish I could turn back time.

I know this is what you wanted

but I was never sure why

but to cut you from my minds hard drive

has been something I will have to learn in time.

How much could you need me

when you planted yourself in no-mans land?

I tried to bring "life" to you 

but I couldn't carry the world through all the sand.

I did everything in my power

to not let passed time devour

what kinship I thought was rare

but passed time showed me no care.

You've exited and our life I'm left with

you let the water run dry

you say you tried, but actions speak louder than words

above all it's your cowardliness I despise.

You've changed faces

ever since your "secret" came to light

but I never banished you

you took off like a thief in the night.

So here my finger dials the phone

as I backtrack to our history

but there's no answer, they'll never be

because you wish you were dead to me. 

Scribbles on my mind from the words left unsaid---

Remembering you're not around

I must scratch through them instead.
