elf [dangerous thoughts]

maybe i was wrong,

maybe i was always right,

or maybe we should never,

have even met.

but it’s these thoughts,

that are left, they travel quick,

through my fingertips,

they are dangerous.

they make me want you back,

despite the fact,

i know you’re gone,

far too far gone.

yet i never thought,

you were wrong,

in leaving me behind,

with your wasted youth,

left in my hands.

and all but a picture,

to keep me company,

with my failing memories

of all these terrible thoughts.

‘cause these thoughts,

they’re dangerous,

even too dangerous,

to live with.
