You approach him.
I stand between the two of you
and plan, again, to never leave.
You reach out and pass your hand
through where my heart used to be.
Only now may you call it cold.
You approach him.
I stand between the two of you
and plan, again, to never leave.
You reach out and pass your hand
through where my heart used to be.
Only now may you call it cold.
