Untitled<br />

Sometimes I sit alone in my room<br />

thinking about what I want to say<br />

because of you<br />

all my hopes and all of my dreams<br />

everything falling in between<br />

seems that the memories<br />

mean more to you<br />

than they do you<br />

with everything I lack<br />

and every time I see you smiling back<br />

I smile because I thought we would last<br />

just to know you’re there<br />

but so far away<br />

footfalls echo in the memory<br />

down the passage<br />

we didn’t take<br />

towards the door we never opened<br />

always what could’ve<br />

or if I would’ve<br />

I’ve made some bad choices<br />

and missed what I wanted<br />

you moved on<br />

but I stayed trapped<br />

stuck in the memories<br />

of our past<br />
