the Offering Lyrics

Laly I just needed one more verse

I was a verse short when you left

You fell off this poem

Oblivious to the lines

The ticking of time

The misplaced stepping stones

Or deducing the crux of the rhymes

Leaving me unfinished

I alone here guarded the stanzas

From smoke, negative verses from ashes of time

On the ruins & landscapes of your reputation

I had it on the reserved loop mode

Clearing paths for memories

To flow back & forth

That might lead you back

When you picked another stream

Laly

I promised myself that, I will last forever with you

With a poem for those after us to remember

A definition of how to break a heart

You offered to martyr me

At the pinnacle of my devotion to you,

To go out on top,

But I declined,

I was a fertile crescent

I had more dedication

To pave a path

To our now-ruined penthouse

To accommodate you

One more night

I should've taken the offer

But I was a fool

I should have known

I would've been done with,

But I preferred to attend to you

Rub & wash your feet

Chant to you verses

Something similar to godliness

AAs a sacrament ritual

It must have been tiring

Walking around my mind

Searching for secrets you've created

Now I grant myself immortality

Without you

Next to the poems I've wrote

To be buried together

A testimony of my greed

A resurrected statue

In Gardens of Stone

Even though you had fallen off my poems

Leaving the epitome unfinished

I could've propelled you into legacy

with one more verse

Now you have to start all over

From the bottom with someone else

And I, at the top with no one

An open end of a poem that will stay unfinished

As a wound till the end of time

Had you waited a little longer

It would've been up there

A chapter in the lord's Good book

Dedicated to you my love
