alone again
i know these sidewalks too well.
i turn around again
with my heart in my hands
and wind up at your door.
outstretched arms await
fires of other nights keep you warm
while burning me
with ice cold words
you turn away again
shy from the feeling of tears
hiding apathy
you can't break what was never whole
these sidewalks are always longer
when they lead away from you
littered with promises
echoes of "i'm sorry"
i don't want to walk alone anymore.
