Co-Existance

Haven't heard from you in years
and yet you call me again that day
asking to get me back
I'd tell you I will, if only there was a way

I'll be the first to admit
I still love you even if a bit
But when you threw my heart away
I was cornered, fell into a ditch

You tell me, somehow, there's a way
and yet for the past year, I ceased to exist
sure enough, I was nearing the end
Now if only I could find an exit

And now I'm left, wandering alone
as your words, your promises
left stalking me echoeing
as if it was all that was left of our memories

You know I can't let it go
like it was never a part of me
to co-exist with another
in which I'd never be free

So you called again to meet me that day
But I'll be the first to admit
I'd rather die, than stay away.
