A bow

If I only for a moment longer

If only back then I knew

I wonder

If I could have watched you as you flew

If I could as you said goodbye and flew farther

As you tore me apart and gave me scars anew

If only I was stronger

But those moments are few

I wish, not for you to be back

You would only leave me more hurt than I am now

But I wish I had the courage I lack

So I could leave you with my undying hurt; then I would bow

I would for no reason but my job well done.
