I misheard your emotions, I misheard your needs,
I misheard my own heart, now regret counts the beats.
I misheard your plans and acted like I didn’t care,
Now that I’m without you, your absence is all I hear
Love wrote the highs, loss read the byes.
Now silence pens the chapters where your voice once replied
Everything I didn’t say
Haunts me every night and day
I care endlessly, so I let you walk away
And now all that matters to me, is the fact that you’re okay
Try
Your name still meddles in the wind,
My friends know not to mention you anymore, but someone else did
I got out of the car, without a fight when you told me goodbye,
Please come back before the distance settles in,
I know I didn’t offer what you needed, but I will give you the world if you let me try

— The End —
