Everyday I live in such despondency
Some sort of dark, dark, miracle
How I’ve lost you, a ******* travesty
You could only tell me that
We wanted different things
As you wiped tears from my eyes
Kissing me, as you watched my soul
weep, in such an untimely demise
I wish you heard my words
As I promised you, that I only wanted you
by my side, but all of your fears
of my alleged wants and needs
How you couldn’t see
the little boy dying inside
Only aspirations of giving you more
The more, I never witnessed as a child
The more, that has only left my mind wild
I beg one day, that you see me again
For I am not this awful man
I pray you hear my words
If only you could hear them again
Maybe just once more, you’ll understand
This time
