I fell for the dark side of you.

I fell for the dark side
of you
Slowly
Throughout the years.

I do not know today
If I gave you a part of my heart
Or if you took it
Back then.

Back then
When we were growing
Simpler
And into the same shape.

We must have crossed paths
At some point
I didn't see
Or feel.

Adrift
We were then
Apart
We grew.

And still we grow
Only now
Things are simpler for you
And more complicated for me.

I do not envy you
Any more than I ever did
I do not discard your pain
Or value.

But today
The gloom around you faded
The sorrow in your eyes
Invisible.

I still feel the dark pull
Of your mind
Wavering
But never stronger for me.

It calls me
And this is where I stop
Every time
I wish I can tell you.

I think you realize
How much you affect me
That I care
And fear.

But do you realize
You are at once
Chaining me forever
And yelling at me to get out?

It took me years
I know what I want
You do
But you do not want to.

I do not blame you
Or hate you for it
Still
I wish.

I fell for the dark side
Of you
You fell out of it
And out of me.
