Hold on

 I wish you'd let me in 

Behind the mirror you hold up 

I dissect your words 

But vagueness is hard to build upon 

And the foundation tumbles 

Every time 

I could have supported you 

Held you up above the waves

Clung togther through the storm 

It kills me to let you go 

But I can't force your fire 

To reignite.

Instead I wait patiently in the silence

You prefer 

And I hold my tongue and my hands

And my heart 

And I trust that this is all happening

For my greater good

That the best is being born from the worst 

And that I wasn't a fool

For believing you 

When you said forever.
