the light of day was sometimes too much to bear
I always wanted to be covered in the sheer darkness of my despair
then something changed
I saw you
my world didn't feel so empty and useless
your smile would brighten my day
maybe it was the way you saw the world
we were exact opposites
maybe its like they say
"opposites attract"
or maybe it was just me
over time i gained the courage to talk to you
then as i wanted
my heart belonged to you and you, me
and for a while, as the time it takes for a flower to bloom
which was supposed to be a lifetime ended
as quick as a flower dies from a frost
it felt so easy for you to let me go
like you didn't care when you said
"i won't give in"
then like the wind you drifted away
it wasn't any of our faults
we didn't cause it
but you let go so easily
sometimes I wonder if you have given me any thought
or wondered how I am
but I think about you all the time
we said "4 years"
maybe you'll come back in four years
ill wait for as long as it takes
i want my life to shine again
