Every Word
We used to be happy
Now we’re are no longer an “us”
“I’m sorry” doesn’t cover it
But I won’t make a fuss
You sat and confessed
While love and hate blurred
You thought I didn’t hear you
But I heard every word
Waves crash and retreat
Sand forgives and forgets
And it happens once more
Still you have no regret
You apologized again
That last brain cell stirred
I knew you didn’t mean it
But I heard every word
I used to know you
Then you looked me in the eyes
I didn’t know who I saw
Now I see it shouldn’t be a surprise
I asked you to go
You told me I’m being absurd
I apologized
And I know you heard every word
