Maybe I wanted too much.
Maybe I pushed you too far.
I can’t forget you now,
So I’ll love you from afar.
You’ve filled my head with yourself.
Your smell, your touch, your warmth and all else.
Tonight you let me go
And still I can’t let go.
Do you know how much I love you?
Does it press down like a weight?
Do you know how much I need you?
Without you I’m not myself.
Does it fill your mind with dread?
Is interaction a drudge?
Do you resent my intensity?
I pray that you don't hold a grudge....
Your love is what I strive for,
Don’t let hate be your judge.
You broke my walls and chained my heart,
Was it really that easy...?
The time seemed right,
But the future was fraught,
And in the end it seems to be all for naught.
Ought I feel sorry?
I don't regret a day.
My only regret is that you've gone away.
I haven’t looked at anyone since….
I doubt I will again.
Even the sweetest lips of the lady,
The firmest touch of the man.
They freeze in motion, they cannot create
That which you did unplanned.
All turns barren, love it must be,
For romance colors myself vision.
People can scoff if they wish. But what good is romance to anyone,
If it's a futile wish?
I’m grateful for what you gave me.
That unconditional love….
But unconditional extends only so far
I have found where unconditional starts,
But also where it ends.
I never saw and you never told
How much I pressed for more.
Is it your fault I’m so clingy?
Or that my nostalgia drives me back?
Is it my fault you never told me
You’d never love me like that?
Is it our fault we fell in love,
When love was such a distraction?
Is it our fault that we fall in love
