I tried to disappear a few times,
You always found me.
I don't know if that makes me
Love or hate you.

Sleepless nights,

And fifteen minutes later I'm still lonely but at least I'm

That didn't stop me from searching  
 all night.

I'm sorry I didn't understand how to love slowly,
It's a shame you didn't have the patience to show me.
