i don't know how to write them
(your good-bye words)
how to score a Coda
to something forever feeling?
(i try
often
secretly
deep in my heart -
they somehow turn tears...)
the truth is
i want no release
from this cage of alone
for here
at least
i've retrospect caress
(and smiles)
fleet glimpses of was and might be
to appease the hunger
you taught
to me
others peer through the bars
tell me of capricious
and fickle
(most
egregious use)
i know better
(you do too)
i saw it in your eyes
once on a time
i won't write them
(your good-bye words)
better lost
to something
than safe
in nothing
i can't write them
(your good-bye words)
they have to exist
before i can write them
(they fit together fine
'til
i put them next to you)
