Out of Reasons
I remember the look in your eyes
At the beginning of summer, and
Way your lips were sweet like strawberries
When we first kissed beneath the moonlit
Night sky. But now those strawberries have
Rotted and that magical look has slowly
Faded away. Someone stole the moon from
The sky, and with it, all of your passion.
I see the struggle you make just to look
Me in the eye, and I can feel the regret
Fill your mouth when our lips meet. I
Fear holding on to you that you might
Die of a want for something new. We
Built a fire to keep us warm as I held you
In the winter. But spring is here now and
This fire is dying. You no longer have a
Reason to stay.
