Icarus

The Cost

Our love cost you dear
It cost you all
A price I would have willingly paid
Though that cost
Sadly landed on you
 
I regret the disappointment
I know that you endured
I regret the judgement
You sought to avoid
I regret the confrontations
You should never have had to face
 
If I could have paid all that price
For you
I would have paid all that and more
To have spared you
From paying a price
No one had a right
To force you to bear
The cost was mine to pay
Though it was not theirs
To demand

(2014)
