We were never far apart,
we just were never close
and that's what broke my heart.
I knew
that you knew;
I thought it was the cue
and walked through the door
but my shadow walked alone
as i stood on the other side,
cold as death and stone.
Waited with dimming bright
through warm days and cold nights.
I hopes with might
that you would do,
and walk through.
The hours walked across,
gradually growing
and slowly separating us
as I crumbled to dust.
Am I to blame?
Maybe it was me, not you
that should have given the cue,
but in the end,
it was you who never came.
Now I stand before you,
inches between us,
pleading and begging
for something;
to give a clue
to what I should really do.
Because if nothing,
absolutely nothing,
is what i get,
I'll forget we ever met.
I'll close the door,
bolt it with a thousand locks;
and by then, no matter what you say,
nothing will make me stay
and I'll walk away.
