Words Behind

Will it last, or fade away
I try to hold on to hope(and past)
Clinging to every word you say
I’m on a slippery slope( this day)

I walk alone to trip and fall
Trying hard to draw close
Thinking of you after all
I what I lost the most

Apostate here, you will not find
My affections are ever last
The meanings of my words behind
For future use, not the past.

A slippery slope by the mountainside... It draws me to you!
