Yew and Me

You didn't get it.
You failed me.
But yew... you didn't.
Why did I give you up for....

You insisted that it was all me.

You weren't worth me.
But yew... you didn't.
Why did I give you up for...

The waters turned to storm.
The once graceful vessel with a white sail started to rock.
But yet I trusted...

You yelled at the winds for not being soft.
You screamed and demanded that the rains stop.
I remained.
I held on and moved and rocked and...

You insisted that it was all me.

You didn't get it.
You failed me.
But yew... you didn't.
Why did I give you up for....

You weren't worth me.
But yew... you didn't.

Why did I give you up for...

And the moment that I let go of you and returned to yew I found...
Why did I give up on yew?

Yew were the lifeline you never was and never could be.

Someday
Some way
Some how
Perhaps

I will find the you that goes with the yew
Within
Around
Inside
the deep core of soul me that you will never be.
