Elucidating Questions

I used to wonder how could you possibly have gone so long holding a candle burnt to the end

But I realised this moment that you could never forget

Constantly your own words haunt you

Followed around by your speeches set in gold on repeat

Your own little cage

How unfortunate

Well now I hope they don’t haunt you as they did

Perhaps they seem different to you now

It would be good if that was how it was

Of course I’m thinking of you again

It’s like a constant background noise

And I don’t have notes following me around with the same old words of desperation and despair

My love for you burned so bright it couldn’t exist

Perhaps there is somewhere that a star shone so bright it couldn’t

A picture of my heart

Wouldn’t it be lovely if I could find my happy ending

At least now I understand you better

Learning in silence
