hummingbird

you said
i can’t breathe
without you
my mouth is
trapped in my throat
i can’t breathe

you said
until i know
to my earth
you have returned
you are my season of peace
in my restlessness

you said
i have all rights
that i am yours
don’t take me
for a fool
if i give to you my soul

you said
you wanted it
all back
love, hope, kisses
this time it was
going to everlast

you said
it was all in the past
this time
it was going to be
done right
it’s hard to believe

you said
how we used to be
and it’s all my fault
and i’m so sorry
i can’t take away
what i have done

you said
this time
it will be different
i’ve made my mistakes
i don’t want to ruin
my life

you hummed
a song from
the forgotten
moments of
days gone by
you remembered
