My time
You want more of it
Because you will be moving away
Because your days here are numbered
Leaving your texts unread
I can’t find the courage to tell you
Those are the very reasons
I’m pulling back
Retreating into my shell
Taking my time with me

My time
You want more of it
Because you will be moving away
Because your days here are numbered
Leaving your texts unread
I can’t find the courage to tell you
Those are the very reasons
I’m pulling back
Retreating into my shell
Taking my time with me

I haven’t posted in a while, so I thought I’d share these lines that came to me this morning.
