How

How?

How?

How

can you stand

to feel what I feel?

When you let in the fullness

and see this end is real?

How?

How?

How

do you go on now that

you’ve lost what you had found?

And take each day now,

as thought I was never around?

How?

How?

Don’t you, darling, still remember

in the water then?

As the New Year broke upon us

our souls spoke unsaid

words you’d later come to forget,

words you’ve taken back?

Tell me, darling, how you do it

and still look so sad.

How?

How?

(do you stand yourself

knowing the truth,

that the end of our love

belongs to you?)

How?
