2 out of 6
Barely stayed at all
The peace scared me
I ran because I could
The first few were almost surreal
What we could've been, I don't know
The very first night
Your head rested on my lap
Heart leaping
How should I feel?
I shared my stories
Played with your hair as you told yours
What would have happened if I made a move?
Stayed up at nights
Series so long but not long enough
If I had stayed through 6, would we almost be?
The emptiness scared me
I ran back because I could
You told me we could never be
my heart for someone else
yet, why was I so gutted?
I know I couldn't love you true
Maybe I just wanted to try it out
The new scared me
I ran back home because I could
The guilt still lingers
I changed my mind
Left as quick as I moved in
If we were, we would've never lasted
I was not ready for new found peace
So, I ran back before I thought "Maybe"
I ran before we were an Almost
