i didn't take the time to learn how to love you

i forgot these things take a little effort

i thought i could just lie

and lay my hands on the not-so-soft lies that your eyes wanted me to try.

i forgot i was supposed to

try and understand about what you were after

try and understand what we were after

wards

words

that were spoken 

were never to be paid attention to

while i was here.

inside your unclean room

in your unfit doom

love was never attended to

love was out-of-the-office

for good.

no one trusts in love anymore

not before dawn

not before the bloom
