Darling

I’m your darling

And it’s strange coming from you 

Strange, to hear you whisper it in my ear 

You say it like it’s the first time

But I’ve heard these words before

Yet I can’t remember the last time I’ve heard them

Neither the way it slipped from his mouth,

That voice 

It’s become nothing but a slight memory

I’m your darling

And it feels like I’ve never heard these words before

Like I have never loved before 

Like I have always been,

Only yours,

Your darling
