Couldn't Even Try

You brought me flowers on a Tuesday. I didn't know what they meant. You talked about the future plainly. I smiled, but I was spent. The door was open I could walk through, But my feet just wouldn't go. You were everything I wanted, But I couldn't let it show. Maybe I'm the problem here. Maybe I just run From every single chance I get before it's begun. I couldn't even try, Though you were standing right beside me. I couldn't even try To let you see inside me. You gave me all your truth. I gave you my goodbye. I couldn't even try. I Couldn't even try. You asked me out on Friday evening. I said I had to work, But really I was scared of needing Someone who wouldn't hurt. You sent a message saying maybe We could start again. I read it seven thousand times and, And never wrote back then. Maybe I'm the problem here. Maybe I just run From every single chance I get before it's Begun. I couldn't even try, Though you were standing right beside me. I couldn't even try To let you see inside me. You gave me all your truth. I gave you my goodbye. I couldn't even try. I couldn't even try. I see you sometimes at the market. You don't look my way. I wonder if you think about it, What I threw away. I'm sorry that I wasted your time. I'm sorry I was scared. I'm sorry that I couldn't meet you When you were already there. I couldn't even try, Though you were standing right beside me. I couldn't even try To let you see inside me. You gave me all your truth. I gave you my goodbye. I couldn't even try. I Couldn't even try. I couldn't even try. I Couldn't even try.
