Two not to be one

I want you to feel okay

I want you to still have the love in your heart

That you told me was beating there

When we were holding hands back at the start.

Don’t listen to the words

Coming from the people and the air

Finding their way to you so fast and free

That hurts even though you know you care.

Love, love, love will come to you

Someday you’ll find the man to match

Your eyes will lock onto each other and

You’ll spend your lives together

You may feel that right now your feet are

Wandering through dank caverns aimlessly

One foot, two feet, dripping water behind you

Every drop rebounds so hard and fatefully.

We spent days and nights together liquidly

Surrounded by people trying to tear

A hole in the gathering but not alone nor

Only we two were finding some way to share.

You offered your heart freely and I wanted

Badly to agree but it just wasn’t within me

I couldn’t find the same sentimental pressure

Inside myself and now I must let you be.
