The Ones We Lost

We tried
We fought
Nearly died
Or so we thought

We lost
We forfit
Very worn
We don't get it

Sometime soon
I hope I see you somewhere
And you look like something
Other than the thin air

The knowledge
Was too much
The empty
and smudged writing I always felt got me nowhere

Meant nothing more when we gave up application
But somehow left some script barely readable while we waited

It said come to me weary and come heavy laden
I won't weigh you down...
