Knocking on Your Door

Knocking on Your Door

I wasn't honest
with you. I left
words unspoken
that should have
come out of my mouth.

I was just too scared
to let them pour
out of myself.
But, now I realized
I was the one who
was wrong.

You did all you
could to keep us together.
I just stood there and
acted like I didn't care.

The truth is, that's what
I'm good at. Acting like
I don't care but if you
look into my eyes
you'd know I was falling for you.

Now, it's too late. When
you asked me if we
could go back to how things
used to be, I gave up
without a fight.

Now, you are gone
and have made
up your mind.

I should have
done something
but you've already
closed the door.

I'm stuck outside
it, knocking, begging
for just one more chance....
