Minute Love

I woke up to a thought I found that I never loved you I loved the way you loved me I wish I wish I could love you the same way you looked at me How you saw me As question and answer I wish that affection and sweet words could be enough That I didn't crave more You may never understand why I walked away But what I know is I woke up to a thought Tangled in bed sheets Restless Feeling that you and I weren't meant to be in love That after a time your affections started to feel like bars to a cage That made me forget who I wanted to be That loving you meant sacrificing parts of myself I had just found I warned you that I was unpredictable That my wants and needs change by the day By the hour And for a minute you were the exception And the next you weren't And for that I am sorry I was your answer But you were always a question
