I remember
The moment I let myself give into it
The way you pulled me in
Your gentle caresses
The security in your eyes
And now you barely see me
I’m a silly girl, I know
Because to you we weren’t worth the time
I wasn’t worth the wait
But I remember that gentleness
The way I gave into you
And went limp in your arms
But like sand I slipped through your fingers
Because you found prettier shells
Whole shells
Washing back into the tide now
I know I’ll stop myself next time
From making room in my breakable heart
And I’ll do it because of you
