Dreaming Out Loud

Beguiled

I wish I'd known it's just an interlude.
It was fun but long overdued.

I wish I'd known I'm a comma instead of full stop.
To see to the end wasn't part of my job.

I wish I'd known I'm just another shore.
About time you sailed to another open door.

I wish I'd known only I thought of love.
Maybe then it wouldn't hurt this much to call off.
