You always fought against our fate
afraid of how things might turn out
never embracing "us".
You might have listened to your heart
lingered longer in my arms
remained in "our" presence
shown the courage to stay forever
in our warmth.
You could have walked with me
sharing dreams on starlit nights
two hearts
laying to rest the lonely quiet
with their harmony.
Instead you walked away
and now
you sit there all alone
and "we" are gone.
Now you see
you should have
let me in.
For now
you have "us" only
in your memories
silence your companion
realizing too late
you should have
let me love you.
