I barely got to know you
Just brushed against something true
Like love—raw, was it real?
I just want to know
Before you go

What would our mornings be like?
Kisses, coffee and sleepy smiles alike.
Would I have fit into that frame?
I wish you'd reach for my hand.
Before the day began

The bits of you that I stole
What wouldnt I give to have you whole.
Not just whispers and glimpses.
Do you relive that night we met?
Before you forget

Tell me how must it feel?
With you to share every meal?
To feed my stomach but fill my soul.
Just one more night can you stay?
Before you walk away

Your eyes held the dawn and dusk,
Your words ever sharp and brusque.
That crooked smile—half a dare.
Will I ever forget your face?
Before it’s lost to space

The taste of your lips
The ***** of your hips
A secret I never learned
A chance for the love that was never made?
Before we fade

Maybe it was all in my head?
Something unborn can still be dead.
But even dreams deserve a funeral.
Just please, please let me grieve
Before you leave
