Do you lie awake
and listen to the night?
Do you wonder
what happened?
Do you wish things
were different?
Do you wish
love really was blind?
Do you lie in bed
and long to hear my voice?
Do you wish you would have
given me a better choice?
Do you ever catch
a whiff of my scent?
And suddenly you are reminded
of all that I meant
Do you think about
holding me tight?
Do you miss the feeling
that I’ll always be there?
Do you ever try
to reach for me?
Only to realise: To let me go
because you were too blind to see
