In a run down house
Thinking of me
Hopefully
Missing me
Wondering how my days had been
When you'll see me again
I remember the first words you spoke to me
"Wonders never cease..."
And left me standing there
Pondering its meaning
I still do
But now they are broken down
With intervals of you
That night , after all that happened
I came by your house and sat on the driveway
You saw me sitting there
Outside in the freezing cold
You didn't say a word
Just sat down beside me
Grinning like a child with his favourite teddy bear
We had a whirl wind love story
Like those ones you find in the stories
I never thought they were real
Until you entered and swept me away
We were as happy as it was possible to be
We lived life on the edge
Living so dangerously
But we didn't care
We had each other
But I should have known it wouldn't last
Nothing good ever was
The accident...
Blood spilled everywhere
Car wrapped around the tree trunk
A huge gash in your head
I heard the doctor from the other room
"He's in a coma - it's for his body to heal
It's hard to know when he will wake
This isn't chemically induced."
I told myself it didn't matter
You'd get better eventually
Remember all the times
We laughed and played together
They all weren't for nothing
They meant something to both you and me
I was there
When you woke up from your coma
My eyes widened
As I saw the first movement
Your first movement for months
Though it felt like years...
You opened up those angelic eyes
Crystal Blue they were
Stared me in the face
Yet no spark came to your eyes
No recognition came to light
The doctor came a few minutes later
Did a full body analysis
"He has amnesia,I don't know if he'll ever recover those memories."
My heart crashed into my lungs
My breaths came thick and heavy
He has no memory of me
Nor the things we achieved...
I cried for a while
Yea, I did
But girl, you got to put yourself together
And save the world each day
Even if your life is in pieces
I sat outside your driveway
Like I did that first day
When the snow started falling
You came - like dawn after the morning
You didn't sit down beside me
Nor grinned like a child
Just said "Excuse me
Sorry,but do I know you?"
I picked myself
I knew by then
You weren't the same guy
The one I fell in love with
That December morning under the sky
"Hey, sorry to disturb you ,
Tell Sandra that I called,
Tell her the guy I loved -
He ain't no more..."
He didn't realise the context
What I was speaking of
"Sorry for your loss"
He said
"I'll pass on your message."
I got up
Brushed myself off
The snow clinging to my hair
I walked away from the guy I loved
My soul ,I left bared
