I can’t

Escape you anymore

You come and go like the wind before the storm.

You whisper you someday promise, and sometimes I listen.

But you don’t stick around for long, and I’m not that sad when you go.

I’m only saddened when you come around for it, always when I’m feeling low.

You try to convince me that your way is the right way, and maybe it is but now is not the time.

But I know I’ll leave the door open, and you will come around again, and then I may say yes.

But until then, I will get back up and smile, for tomorrow is a new day to feel.
