The blank shades of my fractured mind
Cut and slash across my soul
We live to die and die to live
And hope is such a grind
It carries and withholds
Emboldens anticipation
And steals itself away
When reality gets ahold
Hope, it never ceases
To promise forever
A never-fate
That infinite reach
May it hold me by the throat
May it choke my tears that never come
May it bloat my heart with cotton
May it strike and not withdraw
Take it, take me
Leave me, steal me
To nothing and beyond
Where muted silence rests
In the darkness of my heart lies a light
It peeks and shines, bobs and pops
One of my dearest memories, en event
That lasted years but were seconds
I long, forlorn, for that time
That slipped from my hands
That stayed in the past
That never grew old as I did
Could I have given it
Years, nurturing it
Growing it
Watching us age
My memory slips
I remain behind
I, alone,
With this memory of mine

I never could I never did
I wanted to
Scream and beg
And beg and scream
I never did I never could
I didn't know
How to say the words
I'm sorry
I wish I could
Now
I always did
Want to say sorry
I'm sorry
For you and me
For not saying
I'm sorry
To see you once more
For the love we once bore
That I never forgot
Though I never could
Say sorry
