I spent a lot of sleepless nights
running over what you said
when it turns out
all it was
was empty words

-em vidar

our time always
was better spent
apart

-em vidar

I never believed them
now
they're the ones
who never believe me

-em vidar

For the times I cannot love myself
Love me quietly
For when the silences are too loud
Love me peacefully
For when sleeps avoids us
Love me calmly
For when we weather the storms
Love me greatly
So the oceans feel like lakes
Love me deeply
So when I drown,
it's only in you

-em vidar

You've become
the voice in my head
telling me
it's never good enough

-em vidar

I've lost my way again
Time to try again
without you

-em vidar

How do I pull myself out
when I am buried
6ft under

-em vidar
