PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Just a friendly reminder
As your head falls to the pillow tonight
That you're sleeping alone
Because you used have me at your side
And now you've let me go

You should've held a little tighter
Instead of looking away
You should've called when you were lonely
Instead of making your mistake

You can stare up at the ceiling
While I stare into dark eyes
You can scream into the silence
While I reach into the sky

You should've held a little tighter
When you had me in your life
You should've called me to come to you
Instead of trading wrong for right

So, remember as the tears fall from your eyes
That you had someone who gave you all his time
And you chose not to stick around
And remember when you lie in bed tonight
That you lost someone who would keep you warm at night
And you chose to let me down

You should've held a little tighter
To the love we used to share
You should've called me over
But now, I won't be there

You should've held a little tighter
Instead you let me go
You should've called to keep me close
Instead you chose somebody else
