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

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

Help me to understand it Help open up my eyes I’m trying to move past it But I can’t seem to see why When we’re together

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

Rain & sun Flowers bloom Spring has sprung Fading the gloom In summers heat

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

It’s easy to tell someone, “Just move on”, When you weren’t the one In their shoes. It’s easy to tell someone,

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

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,

Are you eating enough? Are you staying hydrated? Are you loving yourself? Or is your breath left bated? Are you sleeping enough?

Waste my time Or break my heart You don’t get both

You were the light of my life So tell me why You decided to burn it to cinders And leave me in darkness

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
