Let me take it all back

All my love that I gave you

Return it to my door step

And leave your key there too



Yes I want it all back

All the beer and all the sex

All of our late night talks

And the buckets of my sweat



You are with her these days

So let me let you go

I’d strangle you if I were her

But I assume she doesn’t know



That your heart has two faces

And one of them is mine

I bet she wonders what you’re thinking

From time to time



Do you stumble on your words

Do you bite your tongue

Do you tell her you’re just tired

And that she’s the only one?



Well my love’s a precious stone

But I’m an Indian giver

I’ll take the blanket off your back

Just to watch you shiver



Cause you don’t deserve eternity

And you don’t deserve her nor me

And I say this all regretfully

And you will be the death of me



You don’t deserve my patience

Blossoming through the night

You’ve kept me in the dark

Let me take back the light

I have felt this, the same as you.

And it hurts to be used.

But our light will forever shine brighter than theirs.

Because OUR LIGHTS "START" in our HEARTS!


Here's to getting over,,,,,,NOTHING really,wink..


Beautiful words and poem, thank you!

I love it! Wish i could take it back....but she can stay with him they deserve each other.

it is not his light to return
only yours to shine
this door has no key
no passcode no rhyme
this is the domain of le passe-muraille
