My hands grow weaker This hold I will prolong My legs shake and quiver But still I’ll stand strong My mind is chaos

As I step forward I look back for one last time I wish you all the best

Like a tower of crystal glasses My hope stacks higher Waiting to come crashing down And lacerate my heart below A thousand tiny shards

My vision clouds with these tears Tears made from our memories Maybe one day the they will stop Or I won’t feel them anymore

What I do Was for you Now it’s me Found self love But I still

I drank you in Like a fish Gasping for water Little did I know You were a shark

Do not assume these words of hurt Are directed at you I have bared to you my heart and s… Yet our words remained withheld Do not assume these words of pain

With words left unspoken These promises broken Are washed away by These emotions awoken Forgive the sinner

When we met You found me At my worst When we loved Time stood still

Because you brighten my day Even when the sun’s shining When I’m feeling down & fret You’re my silver lining Your warmth is like a buffet

It would be easier If I could hate you If you had so utterly decimated me That I couldn’t stand again It would be easier

This noose of hope Around my neck A memory rope Myself I wreck I cannot leave

People always say, “These feelings will fade away” Which ones, love or pain?

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,
