Perhaps It Was You
you never captured me
perhaps it was you
just searching for an answer
perhaps it was you
and not me
sadly, like so many selfish people
you hope children –
will somehow atone
but sadly they do not
inside it is still the same
you never captured me
and pretending you are giving
because inside is dead
and nothing is living
you made no effort
once you had an answer
perhaps it was you
who used me
you never captured me
and you lost out
