Marbles

Looking into marbles as if they’re your eyes.

seeing right past the little white lies.

All you’re doing is protecting a heart

of one who didn’t love you, not since the start.

but I’ve been here watching and waiting alone

So that some day I might be handed the throne.

right through the glass of marbles ahead

You’ll see me barely hanging on by a thread. 

But the glass of those marbles seems to be blurry.

still you signal to me to stay calm and not worry.

How can you say that with confidence I lack

I miss all the moments now looking back.

I had you right there in the palm of my hand

But nothing had gone the way I had planned.

Each thought sends a pain right to my chest

you ignored all my words of feelings expressed.

Traveling hours from sand to snow

Stopped with 3 gone and 7 to go

You‘ll come to me, so I’ll turn around.

I’m throwing those marbles hard at the ground.
