ME, by You...by ME

I was crying in English,
You really didn't understand.
All those tears of glass
Made from the sands of time.

So hard to tell what was real
Or what my head made up
To feed my heart.
I just knew your name held so much.

It was seconds ago
You were such a child.
Eons later, a lady walked away
Distance in her eyes.

It was then I crawled inside myself
And lost me somewhere.
You were nowhere around
To go fishing.

Then with an old wind you returned
And with you came a strength and will
To show me like it never really was
So I could see it like it is.
