You told me you will come see me again
And I believed you
Across the sea, on a small Iceland
I tried not to blink
I tried not to dream of you with somebody else
What if you forgot me? Remembered me only when you were alone
And she is not by your side
I tried my best to trust you and your words
When you told me, you were only meant for me and I was for you
But what if the stars allied differently tonight,
Closing the gap between you two
And distancing me from you
What if they lied and you weren't the one for me
What if I am left, only as a memory in your mind
While you became my whole story
I was left alone on an Iceland
Where you became the world for me
I cried every night
Thinking what if you don't return and I am left all alone, waiting
What if you make a family alone of your own?
While I am left imagining us together
I waited for hours for days for months
And suddenly I couldn't wait anymore
I waited,
I waited for you to come but you didn't
And my skin turned pale like snow
Leaving nothing behind but bones
