times and days long past

you were fading
and fading fast
though occasionally
clarity would shine through
a nostaglic beauty

it seems like
you could've come back
forever
and it would be ok

but it isn't
not now

and the irony is
is it irony?
that you drowned
like the man
before you

although your drowning
wasn't corporeal
at least, I don't think

it was a suffacation
of the spirit
who is not made for the world
which he inhabits

but rather one
which momentarily inhabited

experience usually eases
but not in this case
experience is enhancing
in the worst way possible

goddamn do I miss you
already

but the pain will fade
to a dull and chaotic
half remembered nightmare
as it did before

for now I am stuck
in the cycle
of time dilation
which will continue
long after the pressure
building in my head
is released

the release will be bitter sweet
rememberance bitterer
and sweeter still
echoes in my head
times and days long past
