When you left, you had your reasons,
I whispered, “I understand.”
But deep down, I don’t.
My fault, my regret,
I’m still caught in the why,
Lost in overthinking.

I loved you
More than I loved myself,
Sacrificed all I had,
Thinking, “I’ll be fine.”
But now, I ache for your arms,
And all I feel is cold and blue.

Your smile,
I crave it so much,
Staring at your photos,
Counting the countless times
I’ve tried to remember
How it felt.
Where are you now?
Will you ever return?

I wait—patient,
Though I have little to cling to,
No promises, no guarantees.
I’m still tangled in your spell,
Blinded by the echoes of your words.

They say I’m foolish,
For believing in your promises,
But I’m in love with the illusion you gave me.
Please don’t wake me up,
Not until I uncover
The truth that you’ve already left me behind.

God once gave sinners grace,
So who am I to hold back?
How many chances should I give?
I’m already lost,
Insanely in love with a fool.
