I've grown a crutch by my side It's quite unstable and unpredictable When I lose everything, it's all I lean on Yet, sometimes it breaks, and I fall I can stand on my own two feet But I'm afraid I won't get very far without you beside me

No matter how deep a person will cut me I will always turn around and say “But they are only human” But he didn’t mean it He didn’t mean to give me poison It’s a common mistake

But he didn’t mean it
like a cigarette, ignited and raised to your scornful lips you made me your addiction and i let you consume me

Cigarette
I’m addicted to your love I’m addicted to the pain I’m hurt and I cope but I don’t know the real thing I stay cause I’m lost No value in trash I’m used and abused But I haven’t forgotten about you

I’m addicted to pain
regret. i regret letting you in. love will always start with illusion. and i fell in love with the mirage you displayed. i told myself that the person i fell in love with was still there. that is why i stuck around for so long. for so long i believed that you still loved me as much as the sun loved the sky. even when you said you didn’t, even when your voice didn’t feel like home. home was late night conversations. home was your laugh ringing in my ears. but what was once the house we loved in, it is now dominated by ghosts. it has been 8 months. i still regret. i regret letting you in.

regret
It hurts when you tell me you love me over texts But you won’t say it in person When you change your mind From one day to the next am I not enough? That this is all I deserve a man so insecure He’s destructive with his words

love hurts
If I try to speak, I am quickly silenced If I try to run, I am quickly tripped I am in a time loop where I can’t escape I am on constant edge, to ends cannot make Where every turn leads back to you In everything I say and do where no exit signs exist Only a painful notion of what is

What is
When I fell in love with you I fell in love with your imperfections when I fell in love with you I felt a different connection Despite all of your flaws You’re the one I love Despite everything You’re my everything

Flawless
I want to see the flowers in the day Just as I feel the ocean breeze I want to see the sunset when the sun goes away I want to swim in nature so deep What can you see outside? Nothing but the pitch black of the night I want to cry at ethereal sights I want to understand the colors of things I want to feel what others feel inside When they see mountains, what joy it brings When waterfalls roar, and birds fly I can only appreciate the magnificent divine As I close my eyes when I get tired Nature is as beautiful unseen I feel the wind, rain, and fire Everything is as marvelous just as I dream Is it as beautiful as it is in my mind? Says an old man who is blind
