Gentle Devastation

Hold my hand,

Pull me closer,

Whisper my name,

Don't let me go.

Not true,

You aren't mine,

Letting me fall,

Just for show.

You can't be blamed,

It may be awkward,

I understand,

I know.

Love chooses who,

We do not,

We wish we could,

But we only follow.

I look to you with love,

You look back,

With vacant eyes,

Cold as snow.

You're my everything,

I'm your nothing,

I won't forget you,

You'll forget me tomorrow.

Slowly you fade from me,

You try to leave,

But you're stuck,

At least for now, so...

Please don't push me,

Out the window.

(I know you want to...)
