I would've given you all my years
Instead, you disappeared
And the years before you stole them all
Like they were just a souvenir - only way too small to capture it all because
I would've given you them all
But you broke it down, snatched it away
Scrunched up, chewed and spat out
Everything we did, what we had, in my face
That always looked up at you
Proud
But now my little neck is sore
And my dusty blue eyes sting
Like a cavity it aches
A heart loosely held together by string
What cruelty to rewrite the book
Like it was just a chapter you can overlook
It's made it's way onto the shelf now but sometimes I pick it back up
Flick through the pages that took me ages to move past
Stuck
Now it’s like that lifetime has passed
I'm reshaped by it; unfitting of the old cast
New Chapter: Years That Look Different
But the story remains between the lines
Intertwined
Without a happy, or forever after
A lost piece of time I'll still always posses
Because
I would've given you all my years
No less
