Floating Words

Poetry from the core of me.

Take It Back

Can you take back

The promises you made

The lies you told

In the end of things

Can you give me the beginning

Then make it stop right there

Take me to the moment

Before you took my heart

If you can work that magic

I might be able to forgive

 

Can you take back the reasons

The truths I thought I knew

I don’t want to know

Which were real

Which were not

Take them all and use them

In a spell of some design

Make me forget the march of time

And the feeling of your arms

Around me in the night

 

Can you take back the love

I don’t want it anymore

It only hurts to hold it

Since it shattered in my hands

I don’t care where you take it

I just can’t have it here

Hung around my neck

Like a cross to bear
