"And you said..."
10/30/20 22:01
And you said
"Let me know
If you need anything"
And I, with longing
Long suppressed
Replied "I will"
But you and I know
What I meant was
"I won't, not ever again"
We've both been wounded
Too many times for that
And I lived
And you lived
And you likely didn't think of me
Once in those two weeks
And that's okay
But sometimes
In the dark
Against my will
I'm there again
Laughing with you
In the corner
Thinking that
Maybe
Just maybe
You're the one
And that…
That will always hurt
"Let me know
If you need anything"
And I, with longing
Long suppressed
Replied "I will"
But you and I know
What I meant was
"I won't, not ever again"
We've both been wounded
Too many times for that
And I lived
And you lived
And you likely didn't think of me
Once in those two weeks
And that's okay
But sometimes
In the dark
Against my will
I'm there again
Laughing with you
In the corner
Thinking that
Maybe
Just maybe
You're the one
And that…
That will always hurt
