A glimmer of you flickers past my eyes,
i reach my desperate hands out to you,
but they feel nothing but vacant air,
Why did you run away?,
I remember the feel of your hair,
the touch of your breath,
i feel taken granted of,
but i remember the times,
We lay tangled within each others skin,
and i waited for you to open the eyes,
that made my world move within,
So why are you running away?,
We could be great,
and now only bitter regret,
and hollow cries fill my heart,
is their nothing i can do or say?,
to make any doubt you have,
melt away,
is this truly a waste of time,
cause it feel much more to me,
when i look in your eyes,
Am i the only one that remembers the times,
when you let me in,
when we talked together our hands intertwined
im ready to fight any fight,
just tell me if this love is a lie,
and when you do i'll just crawl away and die,
because it was never so much the loss,
but the chance i never got,
the memories you never allowed us to make,
so was it all fake,
Just say,
it doesnt have to be noble or great,
tell me the truth
.why are you running away?.
