Leave the words alone
Leave the stones unturned
Leave the wounds unpicked
let the scratching go unitched
Leave that moment alone
but stay here by my side
Don’t mull it all over
Don’t read too much into it
Don’t bite your nails
right down to the quick
Don’t pretend it was something it was not
but instead as something that’s all we’ve got
Overplay the moment
Overplay the dramatics of it
Overplay the sweetness of my fingers
brushing lightly across your cheek
Overplay my words round and round your head
so you’ll know how I truly felt
if you’re unsure.
