Huxtable

I wake an inch away
from your face
every morning.
The sky seems gray today,
perhaps an early warning.
You sat there looking in your mirror
I believe things hadn't been clearer
since the day you left town.
You said you wouldn't be around anymore.
anymore.
Throw me from a bridge today.
Throw me from a tree.
Throw me from a cliff today.
Throw me far away.
I was left there twidling my fingers
wondering when and if you would (?).
Would I have to detach your love from my heart?
You're the one I thought I would never part from.
You sat there looking in your mirror.
I believed things hadn't been clearer
since the day you left and
you said you wouldn't be around anymore.
Anymore.
Throw me from a bridge today.
Throw me from a tree.
Throw me from a cliff today.
Throw me far away.
Though the sky seems gray today,
I know you'll always be right there.
I will never be afraid.
I will have no fear.
She says, "I'm sorry, I have to go."
I say, "Okay" as I grabbed my coat.
She says, "Don't worry, this will not end.
Your heart won't break, if only it can bend."
I turn to her and I kiss goodbye.
She turns away and she starts to cry.
I wipe away all of her salted tears.
"Don't worry I'll see you soon my dear.
You'll be gone for a while, but I'll have a smile.
You'll be gone for a while, but I'll have a smile.
You'll be gone for a while, but I'll have a smile today.
Today."
