Open Letter

 Spend all my time collecting

collecting all the words to say it right

to say it out loud

When did you first look away

I run through the times and dates to calculate

when you were giving up

 

I’ll write that open letter

I know I’ll never send it

I only hope it reaches you

One thoughtful day

 

Don’t think back

Nothing’s waiting for you

Time slips away when it’s untrue

 

I couldn’t fight it anymore

We’ve been walking on uneven ground

I turn inside this memory

Don’t know why I couldn’t see it

That horizon’s not meant for me

 

Don’t think back

Don’t be full of sorry thoughts

Don’t let me down oh gently now

Another open letter

Another step away but towards yourself

Every little puncture is better than hanging on a thread

 

I couldn’t fight it anymore

We’ve been walking on uneven ground

I turn inside this memory

Don’t know why I couldn’t see it

That horizon’s not meant for me
