This is not how I imagined it would be No one took me to one side to say how much they’ll miss me Things often crack before they work out The rain has never punished us or if it did We would laugh behind its back or under covers where we hid Content with our mists and our lights Days spent sleeping in suits only emerging at night I know that if I got what I wanted We’d be twisting under anecdotes and chewing over pages Gently spitting as I talk As I unravel a thought Growing, growing, growing bored.
I hope this isn’t all that is left A sorry little evening for the stony road ahead
This is not how I pictured our last words So lets set our stories straight and lets decide just where we were Lies often sound more truthful than fact Like I have no regrets, I’m not looking back I hoped I’d have more to carry with me than that If I weren’t so heavy with all that I lack.
