This Time

This time last year,

You were still here
Watching my fear
Taking control of my world
Becoming part of my life
Every moment, you, were mine

This time last year,

I was still waiting
For the right thing
Words and places
For these sayings
These, later was buried.

This time this year,

I sit here waiting
Of what to say
Memories
That can never sway
You never wanted me more
I never wanted you less
Why do I still bother?
Why do you never care?

It’s over
Buried in the past
Drifted by the ocean,
of the current
Never to return
Change, I must
Before I’m swept away,
by the dust of the present.
