If Only Still

Let me forget

Let me forgive

Let me love you forevermore

 

If only still..

Your voice could take me under,

Pull me with its' current and put my heart at ease

And if your name

Could wash me of the pain, the fear, the anger

Your hate provokes

And camoflague my tears within its' tide

Just for another day

 

Or if

Within your eyes

I didn't se this

Selfish

Spoilt

Child

But the illusions of comapssion

And unconditional love

I have made myself believe for so long

 

Maybe then...

Without the conditions

The hurt

And the disrespect

Maybe then

Just for another day

I could forget
