about

Do you remember
when it was easy?
When your eyes were so warm
and your words so sweet as to heal me?

You remember
me in the darkness
needing you more than the air,
how I whispered to you,
"never will I leave you,
never will I leave you,
never."

But the seams between us
ran too deep,
and I've forgotten
how to sleep without you by my side.
I'm empty through and through,
I need you.

Stifle truth with apology,
the words are so heavy.
'I'm sorry I love you.
I'm sorry I love you,'
over and over and over again.
Won't let it escape me,
"I'm sorry I love you.
I'm sorry I love you,"
over and over and over again.

Do you remember,
when it was colder?
When my words filled the space
where you were no longer?
You remember, me in the doorway.
How I'd plead for your love,
how I'd plead for an answer,
"never can I leave you,
never can I leave you,
never."

Say what's easily said, but hard to uphold.
'Cause it cripples us both when I fall to the floor.
