It’s been a year of falling in love with you / for a brief moment in time you looked at me / and saw a galaxy inside of me / but like the night sky / morning came and suddenly / I was too bright to look at for too long /

I don’t remember what it’s like / not to love you / it’s become a part of my daily routine / loving you is as natural to me / as brushing my teeth / or combing my hair / my love for you is a muscle memory / and forgetting how to love you / feels an awful lot like unlearning how to ride a bicycle /

I need to learn to look at you / and not see the sun / I built up my identity around loving you / and now I have nothing left / I need to grow again / from a seed to a flower / you used to make me bloom / but now I need to find a new way / to survive when the sun isn’t out /
