Let the Love Shine Through
I know you less than yesterday and
for this reason, I must go;
For, I reminisce the closeness that
We no longer show.
Time has shown us no amends for
That feeling gown astray,
And we cannot keep on going
Pretending not to be that way.
We used to be friends, not just
Lovers in the night
Together, we’d laugh and play
Now, all we do is fight.
And, we mustn’t be imprisoned by
Shadows of love past
But maturely both admit
Our love just didn’t last.
We both shield our hearts, so
They’ll never hurt again
Let go instead of holding on and
Here again, we must pretend.
Maybe someday, We’ll learn to
Let our love shine through
But as for me, now’s not the time
Or maybe not with you.
