what if I can’t stay?
what if there was nothing you could say?
because I know where it ends,
even before we could begin.
but I wanted to hold you
have something to cherish
and be held in return
even if it’s only for a turn
maybe with someone who spins the block
just to see what they dropped
and whether or not they’d get clocked
when I say go, you say stop
maybe you are all that I say I am
clothed with a different face?
now you’re the one I wanted then
and I simply can’t pretend
like I showed you myself and all my flaws
and you decided it was your heart you would guard
and that’s OK we do what we can do
i gave you your space, and let it do what it do
maybe what we had was a sure thing
on yesterday’s plane
