I ran across the street following you you said it was safe no danger well you were wrong This was four days ago you bought ice cream as a treat well you were wrong I wonder how it's going who you're sharing your cookies with if they are good or just good enough But as I keep walking, a tree that grew legs away from the ocean glancing back confidently I know you're gone something will remain, in a face, a place, a name, an eye and i'll remember always, what wasn't meant to be Beauty is fleeting Pictures are painted Emotions tangled Potential Unacknowledged Regrets Rampant Sorrow Ignored But still, you needed me and I needed you

Stillness
I ran across the street following you you said it was safe no danger well you were wrong This was four days ago you bought ice cream as a treat well you were wrong I wonder how it's going who you're sharing your cookies with if they are good or just good enough But as I keep walking, a tree that grew legs away from the ocean glancing back confidently I know you're gone something will remain, in a face, a place, a name, an eye and i'll remember always, what wasn't meant to be Beauty is fleeting Pictures are painted Emotions tangled Potential Unacknowledged Regrets Rampant Sorrow Ignored But still, you needed me and I needed you
