Open the cover to the first page
Where the pair of Ostriches
Still left inside the book
Tell me to act normal,
That's already crazy enough.
And I can thumb straight
Through the book remembering
The way it felt to get a gift
From you for no other reason
Than for being swell.
It's such an empty feeling now
When another great moment
Has passed on by us.
I wish I could tell you now
How much everything means
And how much I hold on
To every single memory,
But this book goes to show
How much regret can quickly
Fill up the empty slot left
From days gone by.
You assure me you love to leave.
You assure me you love goodbyes.
You assure me you love letting go.
I wish I felt the same.
