I was the earth,
You were the sun.
You spun like a compass
Around all that I've done.
I know I've failed, but I tried my best.
If only I could touch the hem of your dress.
I was a pivot,
You were a lynchpin.
You don't know the words,
but you like how we bend.
You don't know me now, but you know who I've been.
If you could stay you could love me again.
Life is a game of interpreting scars.
The bruises on my face and the lines lines on your arms.
I haven't forgotten you need carrying, too;
I'm the heaviest burden that ever you knew.
