Onesided

There it sits
On the desk
Photograph
Source of my emptiness
Green eyes
A seeming happy smile
Just a mask
You wore for a while
But all the time’s been bent
All the emotion spent
Time to go
Time to run away again
To the places we would hide our names
To face the day so sorrowful and jaded
Wish it didn’t have to be
So onesided
Memories
Grow bitter with the time
Drown it all in sweet red wine
Just to think
In the times we were alone
In the back of your mind
You were gone
It didn’t have to be this way
If you’d have only stayed
Time to go
Time to run away again
To the places we would hide our names
To face the day so sorrowful and jaded
Wish it didn’t have to be
So onesided
So onesided
It didn’t have to end that way
Just let your guard down
and stay
and stay
and stay
and stay.
