Your heart is worth more
than what I gave you
I had no right
to touch and hold your heart
if I knew
that I could not give
what was needed.
Did I know?
No. I didn’t.
And-now
that I see-
Yes. I did.
It was not your war-
it never was-
and-yet
you wanted to be there.
Your heart is worth more
than what I gave you
