slipping away

I decided to not write about this
Yet here I am
Because i was thinking about this
I was thinking about you
I couldn't stop
It kept me from sleeping
I saw you again
This is the second time
So it isn't a coincidence anymore
This must be more
It is more
You were alone
You said hi
I just waved at you
And you kept walking
I wish I would've been alone
I promised I would have run after you
Still that promise doesn't change anything right now
I wish it would change anything.
I decided too late to don't let you walk away
I don't want you to walk away
Yet I did let you walk away
I should have stopped you
Now I wish I could stop you
But I don't know if you want to be stopped
I don't know if you want me to stop you by holding your hand tight
What I would do to hold your hand
I would squeeze it to realize that this is real
That this is me holding your hand
But it will never be real
But why did we met twice?
Isn't that saying something
It's fate.
Because of fate we met twice
But my chance slipped away
Our chance.
I let my chance slip away
I let you slip away.
You let your chance slip away
You let me slip away.
Why aren't we doing anything about us slipping away from each other?
We aren't meant to slip away
It's like we don't care
But I do care
And I hope that so do you
