Seeing You

 

Seeing you brought tears

To my already swollen eyes.

But the tears remained,

Locked silent,

Wells of sorrow.

 

I hurt you by looking through you.

But you hurt me oh, so much more.

 

It seems somehow funny,

But I�m glad now,

That I hurt so much after him,

If I had not hurt so much then,

And survived,

I could not think to live

Through now and you.

 

Why you insisted

On a final goodbye,

I�ll never know.

I hate goodbyes,

You know that,

And now the words

Have all been spoken.

 

You didn�t even leave behind

A tiny silver token.

I told you in a song

About goodbyes,

That if you stopped,

I�d never let you go.

 

By insisting on that final word

You cemented yourself

In my heart, forever.

My heart will never let you go.

You put that chain upon the unchainable.
