Slipping Away


It feels like this

And It feels like that

But I can't believe

You never fought for anyone before

I just wanted to hold you

Kiss you

And feel love like that

If only just for a moment more

Until I fall back and slip and sway into the place

Where I can't hear your voice anymore
