Own

With a warm kiss placed on that surprised look,

I watched the petals fall on the orchard wall.

We stood and discussed dreams, were they mine, were they yours?

I listened to the sound of your voice but never your words,

I looked for a smile that never cracked the cold exterior of your life.

I gave you everything I had to give, my time, my life, my insecurities.

You filtered them out and only past the worst back to me.

I was only yours in space , never in spirit.

You questioned everything, and could never accept that life simply was

It was never meant to be more, you were never meant to be mine.
