A hymn to the day we parted ways
You asked me to stay,
To give it another go,
At whatever it was that we had.
But what exactly was it that we had?

You asked me to stay,
To give it another go,
At whatever it was that we had.
But what exactly was it that we had?
I sit beside my door
While the pages of my open book
Fight with the wind
Perhaps
To run free from the bounds of their spine.
The moon asked the stars,
“What makes you like my scars?”
The stars smiled widely,
As the moon waited for the answer eagerly.
She says she is fearless.
Is she really?
Deep down she has an ongoing battle
With her fears.
You’ve got this life to play your part,
Never do play with an innocent heart.
You’ve got this life to do your part,
Think with your mind, but love with your heart.
