Reparations

Your touch felt like forgiveness
 so pure.
 Your eyes were made of purpose
 so sure.
 You loved like a tornado.
 I couldn't hold my ground.
 But I wouldn't walk away
 this time.
 I'd plant my feet and stay.
 I wouldn't walk away
 this time.
 I'd definitely stay.
 You've buried all the details
 too deep.
 I grasp at air for answers
 you keep.
 Did my spurs spark the inferno?
 Did my wake tip you upside down?
 Well I wouldn't walk away
 this time.
 I'd plant my feet and stay.
 I wouldn't walk away
 this time.
 I'd definitely stay.
 Underneath your shell
 I saw what gave you hell.
 Silent through your screams.
 Now you're only in my dreams.
 But I wouldn't walk away
 this time.
 I'd plant my feet and stay.
 I wouldn't walk away
 this time.
 I'd definitely stay.
