Angst

Letting him get away

You were there for me, no matter what.
If I turned to the right, you were there.
Turned to the left, you were there.
When I looked behind me, you were there.

What I didn't know, was that you were letting me go.
While I was walking ahead, you stopped walking completely.
You were watching me leave your life, while I continued walking without a care.

When I finally realized I left you behind, I went back.
The only thing I found, was our old memories.
Memories that you've forgotten, but I still remember.

If I could turn back time, I would make sure we were holding hands, walking side by side.
You'd be there for me, while I'd be there for you.
I would make sure to tell you the words I want to now.

"I like you, Capri."
