Perhaps

tonight was the night
I watched you walk away from me
leaving my world behind
leaving only your memories
so many promises
left unfulfilled
so many dreams
never to come true
so many lonely nights
I will wake up
wishing to wake up next to you
perhaps one day
god will answer my prayers
and you will find your way back to me
perhaps one day
I will stop saying perhaps
and cease living in the past
and for the first time
live my life for me
perhaps, but
just not today
