I wanted you to hold me
To tell me you understood the pain
But instead you snarled
And walked away
That was such a bitter pill to swallow
Its taking me some time to see
It was never about me
But more about your capacity
To understand, reflect and contain
Failing me
And who know if in the end
It was never meant to be
This hope that existed inside of me
For your unconditional love
But one thing I know now is
I must hold myself
Or fall through space
Deeper and deeper
Into darkness and oblivion.
