when I think back now that so much time has passed,
I must have known that it just would never last.
when I look back now that I have seen so much more,
all that was hidden seems to come to the fore.
I feel like it all comes back to me,
and I see that I had always known.
I'm afraid that what I had failed to see,
means all there ever was is now gone.
when I think back now how confused I was,
blind to the fairest seed whence it all arose.
when I reflect on myself now all alone,
I know that all I should have done is hold on.
when I look at myself hiding in the dark,
I feel deep inside I still yearn for that spark.
when I close my eyes I can still see the light,
but back then I was so afraid of its might.
I feel like it all comes back to me,
and I see that I had always known.
I'm afraid that what I had failed to see,
means all there ever was is now gone.
