A demo of a new song.

a message to me by Daniel Durrett

i didn’t mean to say all the things i said
i didn’t mean to end it so we can’t remember when we began
skipping lightly through the winter breeze
i didn’t mean to break out
i didn’t mean to scream
i didn’t mean to make you feel like you couldn’t be
i didn’t mean to shout
i didn’t mean to cry
i didn’t mean to make you feel like you had to lie
but i know
despite how dark it’s been
the sun will shine on you again

poison ivy doesn’t start to itch
until it’s been a while since you’ve come in contact with it
poison ivy lurks beneath our kiss
only because
i’m missing it

i didn’t mean to question your courage and intent
i didn’t mean to crush you with all the evidence
shattering
what little time we had left
i didn’t mean to scare you
i wish i could have spared you
from all the intense feelings of regret
but i know
despite where you’ve been
it’s good to see your face again
