I paved the way.
the bread crumbs had legs.
I walked alone, not by myself.
With a shadow, or a doubt.
The nights had sun, the days as long.
I didn't sell my soul nor refused my toll.
I became half whole. Or as much as one.
I revealed my core.
A molten lump.
Soft diamonds kissed by clean coal.
I picked them all up when I left.
knocked them out with the right.
I did lose my way but there was no way back.
I finally found your needle in my haystack.
It never pricked so bad.
There was a ripple in the water.
My reflection said it wasn't me.
I still wanted to float.
I grabbed my faith in a tiny tsunami.
I saw the surface from the bottom.
I forgot my name, it was never the same.
I paid my debts with all coins of sorrow.
Forgot the tear.
I did not regret the refund.
I found it had value, of no value to me.
It was simple, it was right.
I was cool, I was calm.
