Gone baby... but don't be long.

Erykah Badu / Cyclonious - Gone Baby, Don't Be Long (remix)

Taken over by time, our mental planes are constantly changing. Although unnoticable, each change eventuates into something unthought of seen only through hindsight. Sitting in contemplation, it's any wonder what our parents were like in their heyday, before responsibilities took over their lives to take over yours. Free of responibilities, free of the shackles of social or obligatory "musts".

There is or will be a time when that pure spirit of freedom must go, but the longing for it to be back and sparkle in the eyes of your most cherished loved ones... is for lack of a better term, painfully beautiful.

You can see when a spirit is taken from a person's vestige, just by the sight of their gaze, but you also know what it's like when it was once there, full of life.
