Lover my mouth is dry
Like a flower in the desert without water my words will not survive
When I call, you hang up on me my words are grains of sand
Pouring through this phone as more lies perceived,
My conversations bakes in the sun without resolute
To hear you laugh with me is my oasis of changing hope
If ones purpose can be simplify then I come just to talk
Humbled
Without respect, without ownership in the man you once saw
Our love was in another time in life
This charter concluded in the greater good of wrong and right
But the question is can a friendship survive
I do not have the words for your forgiveness
In addition, I might never till the day I die
