You stepped away
Letting it all go to waste
I remind myself it’s for the best
But I still replay that day
Where would we be now
If we had stood our ground
Locking arms for what may come
Changing an if into a how
Obstacles we could climb
To the stars we could soar
Because into each other’s eyes we’d dive
Making me yours and you mine
But that’s now how you moved
Instead you receded with the tide
As the moon’s glow softened
And my heart yours no longer soothed
Because you feared a flood
You stayed on the edge, not risking
Letting go to reach new depths
You moved back and missed the blooming bud
