F I don't know where I'm going but I'm on my way
I think the hardest type of goodbye is the one when theres no goodbye at all where one person just leaves and doesn’t even feel obligated to let the other person know gone, vanished, as if the other person didn't even cross their mind almost like they wern't even worthy of knowing them at all

Goodbye
For the boy who loves me… I want you to ask another girl to dance even when theres no music and to tell stories at midnight in a dim lit kitchen I want you to feel butterflies at the sight of her and to get lost in her beauty searching her eyes for the love you once found in mine. For my first love… I hope you always keep the letters I wrote to you the time capsules of my love tucked away in your side drawer. apart of me wants you to never change but even if you do, the nice boy with strong arms and a loving smile lives forever in my memories For Sean… young at heart, you’re my peter pan never stop being passionate about the things you love. make the most of everyday you’re the kindest person I’ve ever met, spread your light

Who you are to me
living my life in fear scared of eternal damnation an eternity in hell for *** I can’t imagine that bound to a belief that was forced upon me refusing my body and my soul the things they crave living my whole life without actually ever feeling alive I can’t imagine that realizing in my last breath that there is nothing beyond the white light my life dedicated to worship and commitment was for nothing I took a trust fall into hands that were not there to catch me I can’t imagine that perhaps there is a greater energy not a face, not a faith a force I could imagine that Imagine by John Lennon Anthem Song for the soul

Imagine that
I promise to never leave you I promise to love you forever I promise to never hurt you I promise I meant it at the time blinded by the passion lost in the intensity infatuated by the fairytale bound by my immaturity I’m sorry I’m like this a pathway leading to something yet taking you nowhere at all

I promise to not promise
the water is streaming down my face making me numb to the feeling of my tears it runs through my hair and down the small of my back replacing the path his hands would travel reminding me that his touch was even softer than water I played a station we never used to listen to the music in the background is muffled and distant but suddenly a memory plays through the speakers and the lyrics become clear as day and ten times louder all at once I feel the stream of tears again I plug the drain and lay on the porcelain hot water rains down on me until the bath is full the rain stops and everything is still for the first time in a long time I inflate my lungs completely and I float

Float
sometimes I hope you lose sleep at night thinking of what could have been thinking of how you ruined the best thing to ever happen to you thinking of all the memories and good times that we had but mostly, I hope you’re remembering the little things the things that someone only notices when they’re deeply in love the things that you’ll look for in every other girl you meet the things that make you weep because they were unique to me the things that you'll never find in anyone else like the way I twirl my hair back or how bite my cheek before I cry the way I laugh when I’m nervous and the little red mark on my right hand that you always kissed once in a while I wonder if you lose sleep over what I’m doing if you’re hoping I’m just as lost as you are hoping I haven’t moved on or that I still pine over you the way you pine over me well I don’t you broke me you changed me you made me forget who I was in order to be better for you you played the victim you called it off you deserve to be kept awake at night for the ways that you have wronged me

Losing Sleep
on your own terms in your own way you left me and you walked away I'm broken for now changed forever I want to forget and never remember your moan in my ear you hands on my hips your body against mine and your lips on my lips the way you were with me was special and true or so I thought I thought I knew you

No More
the letter I never sent the words you never said the way I never felt the chance you never took how much of a difference would these things have made maybe we'd be hiking that trail in Maine we always dreamt about I bet we'd be taking that old van to the coast every weekend and making love the way we did in that first year but things don't always turn out the way we intend them to now were on opposite sides of the country looking up at the same moon and thinking about the same thing we thought we were soul mates maybe we really are perhaps we just made the wrong choice somewhere along the way but its too late now I’m wrapped in someone else’s arms and you’ve found love in another girl the most I can hope for is to bump into you probably in that old cafe across town that we loved I dream that you hope for the same thing
