Farther than you'd been.

A distant look that fills the eyes, a feeble shake of hand,

Memories scrubbed & washed away, like castles made of sand.

And now we stand few miles away, but you're farther than you'd been,

I'm searching for someone in you, that simply can't be seen.

Life leaves it's mark, it's wounds, it's scars, and scratches through & through,

And in the end, it has left a world apart, between me & you.
