If It Hadn't Been For You


Humans we are they say, little events engraved

In the memories of ere;

In the memories of those sleepless hours;

And yet if it hadn't been for you...

Much passed, most unexplained; Inexplicably

Sticks to the heart the untold truths,

Unheard dilemmas, infinite possibilities;

And yet if it hadn't been for you...

I don't look to reason, nor can I

Reason for strange coincidences;

Uneventful to the passing eye

Save for us, two lost souls, misplaced senses.

And yet if it hadn't been for you,

I would've cocooned myself too:

Far from reach,

Far from strange cravings of the heart.

Regret words said in the past, do you?

Or don't you? In this venture of the

Unresolved, do I walk alone?

My high hopes tell me that I don't.

And yet if it hadn't been for you,

Wouldn't a lost soul be cherishing

The dreams we shared;

Most truly, they are but dreams today.

Fret not, a promise I make in your name:

Those memories in my heart would I bind

Till the last leaf is shed

Whether you're there to note it, or not.

The road goes on,

The crimson horizon never meets;

I walked that mile with you,

All of it, 'cause it had been for you.
