wispy hair, brushes your shoulders
teeth, too big for your round face, embrace me
walk past, turn quickly, begging to return the other direction
you gave in, you always did
maybe thats what happened,
you chose the easy way out
whatever would give you the least fight
it’s expected, but you’re still a let down
hands gripping- only once or twice
i shake, shiver, release
the adrenaline is too much for right now
but now i wish i never let go
corny, like all we said, but still true.
maybe thats what happened, i let go, i was afraid
i did what was easiest
though the easy way pained me
you write to me, talk about what we did
you have to go, it’s time to leave
it always had been, since that day
thats what happened- it was always time to go
grip another hand that wont shake as much, so used to the rush
