Catch Me As I Fade

by Katherine - Aquarius

Find me
for I am lost in thought,
so far from reality.
I cry out from the depths of my soul with a sound that
     falls upon deaf hearts.
I can't cry now that you can see me,
     let me leave and hide from you.
I've learned to cry without making a noise that can be heard.

Find me,
for I am lost in life.
I can't tell if it's myself that is the problem.
Is it I that is uninformed of my fault?
Is it you that holds the truth behind your back?
Let me leave and hide from you.
I've learned to run without leaving my tracks.

Find me,
for I am lost,
let me know when it's too late to be found
  so I can no longer wonder when too late is too late.
Show me what your hiding,
  only then can I no longer hide in this wide open space.
I've learned to scream with my mouth shut.
