I still can recall
When you scribbled
A handful of tales
And each one
An unpolished gem
You took time to unveil
I wrote character sketches
But you would capture
The mind of a child
Counting rabbits at dusk
I constructed each line
But your words were these
Fields of wildflowers
That masked all your pain
And I feel like I lost you
Long before I knew it
But you were already gone
I just couldn't see through it
For you could
Sink arrows
In victims with
Expert precision
An email that
Conjured the past
In acidic derision
Then you lost your charm
I let go of your arms
And you’d call
In a state of self-harm
And I feel like I lost you
Long before I knew it
But you were already gone
I just couldn't see through it
I can’t forget what I did
When I shut the door
In your face
You just melted in place
And I feel like I lost you
Long before I knew it
But you were already gone
I just couldn't see through it
I feel like I lost you
Long before I knew it
But you were already gone
I just couldn't see through it
