Results of a Restless Mind

what could have been

i sat in your space

a place

 where so many times we had talked

but not seen

fingers typing on a lit up screen

your house was different then i expected it to be

but still

i could see where you would have sat

talking to me

the roof where you stared at the stars

the road where so many cars

passed you by

but why is it

when i went to leave

it felt as though a part of me stayed

in another universe

maybe i did

maybe he wasn't real

and you were all i knew

maybe he stayed away

miles across the sea

and i fell for you

and you for me

but as i moved to the door

you stayed where you were

you made your decision

and i made mine

and as you sit at home

and i sit in bed

surrounded yet alone

at least i know

that i belong to him

and you?

well i hope you find someone

who's willing to stay

just remember

it could have been me.
