“ residue ”
I wish she knew of all the sleepless nights,
Brought by the decisions that I have made .
Or how time hasn’t healed the wounds,
Those ones I thought would fade .
And that my mind still thinks of her,
When I visit places were we’ve have been .
With still the hopes of maybe fixing these things,
Before the life that’s me does end .
Deep Deep, in the dark that’s night,
Somehow I know its true .
That when I’m lost in our memories,
Your somewhere thinking too.
No one could share the things we’ve shared,
And expect to erase us clean .
Without bits of laughter, and yes some tears,
With flashes of things we’ve seen .
And though time just keeps ticking by,
As this world still constantly turns .
Are one time love left its mark on me,
Like something that once was burned .
