gentle, calm, and quick

that's how You came to Me

I let You in

I let You stay

then You took My Heart away

grievances

all is lost

that's how You left Me

I cry for You

I'd die for You

You won't do the same

a simple "hey"

I wrote Your Name

then crossed It with black ink

across the line

You took Me

to places I've never seen

could You be real?

or are You just a dream?

to this day

I don't know eh

would You please tell Me?

loving You was easy

I closed the door on everyone

but gave You the key

long hours I lay here

hoping to sleep

hoping to breathe

without You

I will never find another You

and You another Me

so gently I fell asleep that night

safe and warm

in Your arms

only temporarily

would I have known

I'd never let You go

such innocent fun

such playful fun

such lonely as one can be

when all is lost

will You come back to Me?

I will miss Your voice

so deep

so sweet

I will miss Your touch

so blissfully off Me

I will miss Your humor

My smile lightened by Yours

My eyes always shining into

I won't miss Your absence

You were never there for Me

You took

and took

until there was nothing left

I needed You

I wanted You

to be there next to Me

hold My hand

be my man

please Baby

I'm sorry Our fun was not love

We couldn't make it

did You want more then I gave?

did You even want Me?

silent tears I cried

as You watched Us die

You're not a man

You can't even stand

on Your own two feet

I would've given You anything

and everything

You had Me like putty in Your hands

willing to shape Me into whatever

You wanted

why didn't You?

instead You poked and poked

and poked some more

until I had a giant hole

You then filled it with salt

from salt You tried to cover it with ice

burned My Heart

blurred My vision

and left Me scarred

time will turn You into a distant

memory

a memory long forgotten as I move on, Bou

as for me?

I'll be fine

just need to breathe
