I can't get over you

I slipped on your old shirt, your smell still lingered. My fingers glided across the wall that once held our bodies upright in an embrace, or held our crumbling figures mid-fight. The only thing these cold, white walls held know were memories and I needed to break free from these walls, but we both knew I was too weak for that. I still sat learning new things, that I knew may be relevant to you. I still listened to those songs you said "reminded you of us". I still cried over the first time you told me everything but mainly I look back in regret. I'd take back what I said.

I know this was all my fault, but I know I can't be sitting in the shadows, waiting for you.
