Cave in like a wave;

As I wave a new Hello for what's to come

Or what we are to become.

Would we?

The times would fade, wouldn't they?

Forging me drained and cold...

Kissing my cheeks in the rain, while passing by...

Leaving me with nothing more to hold.

I wish that I could see you stay

With all the lost names you've called me by,

And never find myself waving you this goodbye.

The moments we make might ring in my heart

Carving their way to that prophesied hurt-

Which I dread

As my last great memories fade.

I wish for once, reality defied what I've read;

Please don't leave,

Let me believe.

I'm trying to root, holding on to this thread;

Forgetting old wounds

To create those that are new-

Pushing away all my truths

To spend a little more time
