when we were still young

maybe it was your radiance
or perhaps your touch
which drove me too close
which led me to your soul

maybe it was your smile
that made me grin
for the first time in a lifetime
for the first time in a while

so if I may ask why
did I let you in?
why did I drag you
to the darkness that resides within?

why did I share
what I've hidden?
why did I spill
the milk I was holding?

but maybe it was the reason
why you didn't accept
when you realized
I was convicted of treason

but I wish I didn't tell you
I hope I can turn back the clock
to the time when we were friends
to the time when we were still young
