Sometimes I wonder
if I fell in love with you
because of the words
—you never saidSometimes I wonder
if I fell in love with you
because of the stories
—inside your headSometime I wonder
if I fell in love with you
because of the mask
—you always woreSometimes I wonder
if I fell in love with you
because of the battles
—and not the warSometimes I wonder
if I fell in love with you
because your quiet solitude
—made me take the fallSometimes I wonder
if I fell in love with you
or if I never really knew
—who you were at allI fell in love with you,
but I'd never felt so alone
because it wasn't actually you
it was the things you'd never shown.–leonardo r.
