IF ONLY.....NOW IT IS TOO LATE

in #poetry6 years ago

Maybe it was you.
Maybe it was me.
I guess it was us.
We never said all the things we wanted to say
We never tried to get it out
To make each other understand how we really felt inside

Scared that we wouldn't survive,
We kept the hurt in, the pain, the ache...
Thinking we could get past them
Move on to what we used to be
Like nothing ever happened

What we failed to realise was that
Sometimes a building has to be torn apart
So that it can be restored to a better state
So the only thing we succeeded in doing,
Was going up in flames

Exploding from the coals in our hearts
The coals we never thought to put water to
Keeping them hidden, where they couldn't be reached
All because we didn't want to burn each other
Funny how we ended up burning, together
