maybe my tongue is tied

with all of the feelings I buried behind it,

little tongue twisters that I refused to speak


perhaps I should have turned around,

looked you in the eyes

and told you that I'd be your man,


that we are loyalty

that comes in two,

a pretty set


left only to you & i,

a pair that is tied together

by something like fate,


except it isn't fate,

but two people that fought side by side,

and now fight together,


experience has glued together,

a stitching from a more experienced hand,

and I think,


that I left something behind that day,

when I rejected your love,

forcing it to take root


somewhere distant from here.
