I didn't see
That you were there, hiding beneath
The white sheet I so carefully hung
To project my love onto
Like watercolors on canvas
Colors bleed into me
Hope dancing before my eyes
On the screen of my own making
You wrapped my sheet around yourself
Save and warm and dry
And I didn't see
How empty your heart really was
All take and no give
All you project are shadows and darkness
And when you took enough from me
You threw the sheet on the ground
And the reel ran out of film
When you left I cried.
