And so I wrote another poem, love
Are there any regrets running through your mind,
Or was it just me all along?
You kept telling me it’s because of your idleness,
Yet I long for something more

And so I wrote another poem, love
Is there any pain in your heart,
Or was it just me all along?
You kept speaking of promises,
Yet you keep forgetting them

And so let me write another poem, love
There was a time you’d move the heavens and earth
You said that feeling was still real,
Yet your words are the only ones left here

And so let me write another poem, love
Is there anyone keeping you from chasing that dream,
Or was it me who wasn’t worth it?
You can run from here,
Yet you’re still staying

And so I wrote this poem, love
I am afraid of the things that don’t last
Just like this poem;
Expressed, but never spoken
