we hugged for not long, until our lips couldn't resist -
our hands full of warmth and tight clasp.
the comfort you bestowed upon me assured me of my worth,
and it was nice to know, I could find happiness with you.

Yet, on my own, I yearned for your reassurance more than I did
For the strength within myself.
Relying on you for happiness, my insecurities hindered the way.
our 'we' became misunderstood, and our bond remains in fade street.

I envision a day we can return to each other, for now I know
myself and have found peace in cherishing life.
I hope you find that too, for if I found happiness without you then -
maybe I would still be happy with you now.
