I know this is possessive,
I'm sorry I lied.
I know you're your heart that carries on,
I'm sorry I'm mine.
I know you're the good in me still,
I carry our time.
I'm sorry we lost you.
You know well that I'm
just a story we'll tell
at the end of the stars,
where we meet again.
The time that we spend
when I see you go on, because you must-
trust that!-
I'm sorry I'm selfish-
I'm sorry I'm selfish,
but with what remains
to salvage
there are so many ways
that say
I-will-keep-you-I-will-keep-you-always.
Trying lyrical format for a change.
