Once We Were

Once you were 
My forbidden treasure

Once you were 
Just there

Once you were
A lot of things
Once you were
More or less

We let go 
all that though
Didn’t we?

Or did we?

Once you were

So many things

Once i wasn't
Quite myself

Once you were
Trying very hard
To make things right
But i wasn't 
was i?

Or did i?
