Why Do We

Quietly i ask to leave to no one else
Just to myself
And i reply alone you leave
Contemplate what was good for me
On the upside i’m who i am
On the down that’s all i have
Why do we
Why do we ever.
Consciously i made the bed in which i sleep
Without a hand to comfort me
The room’s too dark to feel at peace
I had what was meant to be
And then i slipped
The the dark crept in
Towards the doorway away from him
Time seems to pass you by
Without a hint or sign
Of what it could have been
If you had stayed with him
Swiftly out of the blue
Out by the wayside
Over too soon
Is this a recourse?
Bow down too late
Is this what i miss out on
Whenever i wait
Why do we.
