All I could do.

The days grew so long.
It seems so long,
All the long days
Have turned into long nights
Yet at the end of them both
I still long to hold you tight
In my now empty arms.

As the night passed by
I snapped out of my fantasy
it was all just a dream.
died as a fallen petal
What I knew to be true
And undying love
were just lies.
Beautifully told.

Remembering the scents
of a far off love
that never was
All I could do
Was sing a sad song.
As the dream vanishes
in the twilight sky.

Remembering the scent of a far off love that never was
So sad having to let go but nothing is worse than believing
in a love that could have been but will never be
