I read your words
They seep with pain
My heart is beating hard
Its getting harder to breathe
You were everything beautiful
What love was supposed to be
I still shiver when I think of how you touched my body
The way your lips absorbed every part of me
Now I'm drowning in your river of self decay
Because I can't feel what I felt
I would do anything but you threw it all away
Wasted on innocence and insecurity
It just wasn't in our cards
You were everything beautiful
What love was supposed to be
Please baby, don't cry
I'll hold you in my arms
No promises but tonight I will try
Our history one of the greatest tragedies
Not even Shakespeare could write.
Do you remember when you picked me up in the pouring rain?
I was running
I'm not sure what from
But you called me, or maybe I called you
I loved listening to music with you
And watching weird movies in your dark room
I never spoke because there were never the right words to say
I thought you could be the one
But what does any girl know at 17?
You were everything beautiful
Everything I wanted you to be
There is no shame in the feelings we shared
I'm afraid pride will never let us know
Let us know anything.
You are everything beautiful
Your songs,
Your lips,
Your silly tattoos
But I'm sorry I can never let myself trust you.
