PHX

I'm leaving for Phoenix, Arizona as a yellow sun collapses to the ground
You blink as dust collects on your eyelashes, and all the words you're searching for don't have a sound
It doesn't have to mean goodbye when I'm gone
It doesn't have to break our hearts to move on
We have lost a thousand loves in a thousand lives before
This is just one more
A memory fades in and out of focus, the colors not as crisp as they once looked
And all the time and space that's now between us has turned us into characters from forgotten books
Dry whatever tears you have to cry, my lonely friend
Shimmering and brilliant, life spins by, and some things stay and some things end
