truth is

the truth is
i never wanted to say goodbye
i never wanted the sun to set
or the stars to appear amidst 
the darkness, i never wanted to
part ways. i never wanted 
to feel alone, i never
wanted to wish i wasn't
here. i never wanted you to 
forget about me. 
i never wanted the radio 
to stop playing jazz, 
i never wanted to close the piano lid. 

the truth is
i never wanted you to go into the dirt.
i never wanted you to cease being mine. 
i would offer you an apology, but i never
want to seem breakable.
