got away

sand in our eyes
cuts so deep
quite unsure how we left
without vision
that was us
your decision

so close
felt what was really happening
heart beating rapidly
wasn’t grappling
i said don’t go

couldn’t see
but the vision was useless
i knew you were gone
but i was left clueless
the moment i held
so right
you said you’d be back in a week
but you didn’t speak
i felt the goodbye
you were alive
just like in july

only heard your voice
the restraint
my unconditional love
ain’t so quaint
you couldn’t see it
yet it was there
but i guess it was a glare

without eyes
i knew
i just knew
you had no flaws at all
you were flawless
my fondue

no sight needed
blinded by what i thought was to be
fearless in the thought of you
plus me
but that’s an old wise tale
of how we were supposed to be

next time
i won’t let you find a way
away
