Language Barriers

I’m trying to figure out the words to express what I eel

But I don’t even know how to say the words

I don’t know how to explain.

Explain the way I had all these expectations

All these dreams of the way it would be

And you don’t know that.

I can’t lay my brains on the table

So you can see the map I made of you and me.

And I can’t be mad about that.

Mad about dreams I dreamed with bright colors and sharp lines

But I can’t lie and say I’m happy.

Can’t just grin and bear the way

All my wild construction fell apart

Like so many pieces of paper and weak glue.

So many scattered pieces of the puzzle I put together.

But how do I tell you that?

How do I tell you these few short days

Not only ruined my week

But also a possible future

A possible future that would’ve mad us both so happy.

But I understand.

It’s not your fault.

But I can’t help mourn

for What might've been
