A Little More Time

I know you're out tonight,
To forget about me.
You have been gone for hours.
Do you need me?

I shouldn't ask,
when I already know.
I'm just hoping,
you'll let it go.

The words barreled out,
they bit at my tongue.
I didn't mean any of it,
my worlds coming undone.

I know you don't believe me.
A single thing I say.
All I do is remind you.
Day after day.

I have no good excuse,
you don't deserve a lie.
I'm just begging you,
A little more time.
