In August from The Caretaker by Half Waif

In August,
If I’m honest,
We were on each other’s team.
Then autumn came
With all it’s fade.
I wonder how you’ve been.
Oh I have lost your friendship.
What does that say about me?

Don’t look back now.

Am I meant to find
Some strength in me,
Hidden where I’ll never see it?
Is it obvious?
And if I can own
Up to what I’ve done,
Then I’ll get it together.
Will you follow?

In April,
I felt capable.
I didn’t need you here.
Eclipsed back into summer:
God, how has it been a year?

I could go out walking
But I don’t want to leave my room.
You’ve broken your promise,
What does that say about you?

Am I meant to find
Some strength in me,
Hidden where I’ll never see it?
Is it obvious?
And if I can own
Up to what I’ve done,
Then I’ll get it together.
Will you follow?

Don’t look back now.
