Wishing.

You can see a change in my ways, in my pattern as of late.

I've turned upside down, it was always my detrimental fate.

You caught me off guard, almost lost in your embrace.

You held with your hands such a guilt ridden face.

I didn't see it coming, when I did I just hid.

I try to fight them off, but my tears seem to win.

 

You said it wasn't me, it was a past of long lost love.

I couldn't believe the things I heard, I knew it was never my luck.

To find someone such as you, bold, kind and strong.

I never took precautions, this time I just hoped, prayed and longed.

A mistake I should never make, I know this now for sure.

I'm just sitting here idle, waiting for the cure.

 

My heart is sewn on my sleeve, your name is in the stitches.

And if you ever change your mind, you'll find me here just wishing.
