John Allen Poet I do not know?

Been So Long

Those sighs under those nights came calling again 
Those whispered tears I thought were too far gone 
well they came back to me today 
today the day I cried for what I had to say 
I can't change those terrible things 
those terrible things you may have thought 
those tiny fears the raven sings 
even though I know I fought 
Been so long since you have seen me 
Been so long since we met 
I don't know when we stopped being 'us' and 'we' 
only the deathly wind has that secret kept 
I remember the tomorrows I used to dream 
I recall what I wished would be 
I hate to think of what you thought I seemed 
even worse I hate to think why you wouldn't love me 
But yesterday is over and tomorrow's chance forever dead 
been so long since you made that choice 
the choice of being with someone else instead
