I love you he would gently whisper into my ear
I examined those words because I was curious to what they meant to him

If he truly loved me, he wouldn't have given up so easily.
As he watched me turn to sand and slip from his hold that was not strong enough to contain water.

He wanted so much from me, yet his feelings remained a velleity
He wanted me, but his want for me was not strong enough for him to try and make me stay.
