Ataraxia from Ataraxia by Hello Whirled

last i heard
you walked off the grid
and moved into a forest
and built yourself a shed
you bleached your hair
and grew it out
and bathed in the rivers
where you wouldn’t be found

sometimes they’re wrong
but maybe you really snapped
it’s sure what you needed
away from me

and you became the queen
of the forest green
a wide expansive space
to lay upon your grace

i’m glad you’re alone now
you’ve found a new home now

i miss you
and you don’t reciprocate
but where you stand
i can’t really hate
femme of nature
child of god
im too close to my ego
locked in the pod

one day jealous
next day everything’s okay again
one day missing
next day one with mother nature’s friend

and you forgave the moon
for giving you the shadow arm
and you forgave the dune
for leaving you with broken charms

every misstep
every mistake
every time i said you couldnt go
every night i should have let you know
i had to let you go

so how’d they even find you
in the vines that grew to bind you
below the ivy crying
the whole time body lying

the dragonflies out flying
the hair you grew knot tying
the feeling chasing blinding
