Huxtable

I wake an inch away

from your face

every morning.

The sky seems gray today,

perhaps an early warning.

You sat there looking in your mirror

I believe things hadn't been clearer

since the day you left town.

You said you wouldn't be around anymore.

anymore.



Throw me from a bridge today.

Throw me from a tree.

Throw me from a cliff today.

Throw me far away.



I was left there twidling my fingers

wondering when and if you would (?).

Would I have to detach your love from my heart?

You're the one I thought I would never part from.

You sat there looking in your mirror.

I believed things hadn't been clearer

since the day you left and

you said you wouldn't be around anymore.

Anymore.



Throw me from a bridge today.

Throw me from a tree.

Throw me from a cliff today.

Throw me far away.

Though the sky seems gray today,

I know you'll always be right there.

I will never be afraid.

I will have no fear.



She says, "I'm sorry, I have to go."

I say, "Okay" as I grabbed my coat.

She says, "Don't worry, this will not end.

Your heart won't break, if only it can bend."

I turn to her and I kiss goodbye.

She turns away and she starts to cry.

I wipe away all of her salted tears.

"Don't worry I'll see you soon my dear.

You'll be gone for a while, but I'll have a smile.

You'll be gone for a while, but I'll have a smile.

You'll be gone for a while, but I'll have a smile today.

Today."
