13 Year Old Ruby

Lost enough of you
The cause was time
Gone not lost
Paths
They seem to be waving all around me

In circles and through me

Always pressed for time
Never having enough
I search for you
But your ghost dances

Around me forever
Never finding rest

I can't believe that you are gone

Face down is how I see you
Now I see life in plain view
You left signs I never did see

Can I avoid the same route you took?
When you grew old you got too bold
Wishing it was just my turn to be the one
Who made a change in someone
Now you have the chance to look down
