The Question

i refuse to let your absence define my love for you Is it that you're not here, now that I know your true value? No I gave you the warning signs that you were losing me Your grip around my hand was becoming too weak, and my lips were turning red in pain but you looked at my face and screamed, “We are just fine" We were a passenger on a boat whose sails were torn, but I still held hope we'd cross these waters, and reach the land, i thought maybe we would find peace once we reach the shore But you jumped off the boat— because you found someone else to hold
