I do not have the words
to turn your life around,
or to make this dark sided
one way street end.

In a less cheesy version:

I can’t be your hero, baby
and I am not Ed Sheeran
waiting to make you happier.

But here’s
what I never told you.

You’ve been
my favorite wallflower.
With Bright Eyes’ words:
The first day of my life.

Not any of these past days
have been easier
because you disappeared.

From where I stand
I can’t move.
But whenever you risk
a look through the clouds
I promise to be there.

Never waiting
but hoping
for the best.
After all this time.
Always.
