1. THE LIGHT I NEVER DID SEE

I used to sit outside and wait for you
Though I knew you'd never come
I'd hope and I'd pray that you'd show your pretty face
Or turn your light back on
And confirm you were waiting for me too
I'd romanticize this ideal of you
And me
Of how in love we were, and how you needed to be
Close to the only thing that could keep you breathing
And how I was that one
The one that could save you.
But to tell you the tame truth, you never felt for me
And though it lay before my eyes
Just like your light that I never did see
Though I waited with every bit of me.
In many ways i haven't moved on
I'm still sitting there on that swing
I'm may no longer be waiting for you
I'm realizing now Ive been waiting on me
