I set the beat
of this heart by your eyes in the morning light.
I dug so very deep.
Around all these reasons
why I was so all alone.
I did my best to be the only right in a world so wrong.
I confessed and was splayed in truth before you.
I fought off my old habits
as soon as they crept into the light.
I did this for you, us, all it was
and wasn't
I  felt I knew how to be great
Gave  so what I believed  would be
whole hearted.
I loved, still love and terribly miss
the you shaped piece of my insides
Missing and wishing
Wondering if you are.
If you saw
the future I thought would be the present.
We were great,
and I believed we could make it
Then we didn't.
