Do you remember me?
The one you told your secrets to
and with whom you shared your dreams?
You let me see so far inside
I couldn’t help but lose myself
and here I am still struggling to get free
Long after you closed the door
and walked away completely
So wrapped up in beauty
while drowning in the darkness
Do you ever stop to think
about what happened then
or what might have been for both of us
had it all worked out?
You don’t have to ask me that
It should be fairly obvious
that even as I try to leave it,
it always finds a way
to creep into my thoughts
And though I know I’ll never know
the path we might have walked
it would be a burden lifted
to know you’d wondered, too
To find that it wasn’t only me
that started down that road
