Just One More Time

If I could meet you one more time

I would not shake your hand, I would leave

I would leave you alone, feeling weak and dumb

The same way that you did to me.

If I could hear you one more time

I would hope you were talking to your boss

And all your future plans, were being rejected

Just like you did with ours.

If I could talk to you one more time

I would tell you I love you so much

I would say many lies, and laugh when you cry

The same way that you lied of us.

If I could dream of you one more time

I would dream you were bones in a garbage

Left out and rotten, I would throw you away

Just like you did with your promise

If you could see me one more time

You would see the anger in my eyes

I would not have to speak, you would know your mistakes

Your replacement would be at my side.

If I could write one poem to you

That you'll never in a million years read

I would write that I miss you, and still think of you

Then I'd burn it, and set myself free.
