Love welcomed me
Into a warm little house
Narrow hallway
And your mother hugged me close
I saw you stare at me
Black T-Shirt
Your grandmother turns to you
Then admires me
Don’t you think she was right
Intercepting our sight
Letting you know
That she knows
Were bound to be one
One day
I missed you
While you sat in front of me
If my foot brushed against yours
You’d flick it away in an instant
But why
Why’d you have to make me cry
As I was leaving
You never saw the tears I held back
And you never will
Dinner and a 4 course meal
Couldn’t make me forget your everlasting steal
Of my heart
My life
Although you weren’t doing anything at all
I sat on your couch
You were gone for so long
I tried to check on you
But you dodged each call
I don’t know what went through your head
But when you came back you wanted me dead
And sat on the other end
I wasn’t even worthy enough
To look at from afar
Your mother told you to stop
I asked if we could talk
But you didn’t listen to me
Me or anyone
I missed you
While you sat in front of me
Was I meant to yell
Or apologize
But why
Why’d you have to make me cry
As I was leaving
You never saw the tears I held back
And you never will
Stood in the doorway as I left
Your mother hugged me
But you couldn’t seem to shift
Longing for my absence
As quick as you could
Oh you won’t understand
When I saw your waving hand
How I felt praying
That you’d come hug me instead
I missed you
While you sat in front of me
You never cared
About the heart you were bound to break
But why
Why’d you have to make me cry
As I was leaving
You never saw the tears I held back
And you never will
You’ll never feel the brush of my foot again
I’ll never sit on your couch
Ever ever again
The warm little house
Bid me the iciest farewell
And hate sent me off
