Pale

Your lips were pinker,

Your skin paler,

We were silent most of the time,

Maybe I did need to say goodbye,

I was about to speak up,

And when I looked up to speak,

I saw you silently weeping,

I wiped your tears away with the sleeves of my sweater,

And without saying a word you leaned into the crook of my neck,

I ran my hands through your hair and held you tight,

As you muttered about loosing 'her' tonight,

Why you came to me I could never be sure,

You were always unpredictable,

But maybe that's why once upon a time,

You once loved someone like me.
