I drank you in Like a fish Gasping for water Little did I know You were a shark
The longer I wait for you The more I prolong this pain The longer you wait to speak The more distant I become The more I heal
People always say, “These feelings will fade away” Which ones, love or pain?

Most people drain me But you are not most people You recharge my soul
As I step forward I look back for one last time I wish you all the best

If you told me To lay down my arms I would raise my shields Yet I surrender If you warned me
Rest your head on my shoulder When you’re feeling tired Let me sing of your praises When you need to be inspired Bend my ear to your lips
Are you eating enough? Are you staying hydrated? Are you loving yourself? Or is your breath left bated? Are you sleeping enough?
When we met You found me At my worst When we loved Time stood still
It’s not the familiarity It’s not the loneliness It’s not the memories It’s not the safety It’s not the comfortability
This noose of hope Around my neck A memory rope Myself I wreck I cannot leave
What I do Was for you Now it’s me Found self love But I still
I mourn not for what we had, I mourn for a future lost. A foundation laid of promises, Promises that now seem so easily b… I cry not for this loneliness,
