I can't face you. Not because I'm over you Or because I hate you, But because I'm afraid That the next time you see me You'll realize that I was never Worth the world Like you thought I was When you would've given it all up To keep my hand to hold.

Keep my hand to hold
Like the changes in the sky, From day to day, I find my seasons shift From loving to pain. From the warmest of hearts, To the light of your day, The warmth on your skin- I am touching every part of your being. To the frost that bites your frame, The shivers you get When you pay too much attention, The thing you can’t escape Even when you find warmth again- I will still be the coldest little ******

season to season
You can’t just walk out of our room And hope to be drenched In a different kind of rain. All it is is a different kind of pain You’ll be drowned by when you think You’ve found a reason to be sane. The droplets roll down your face To tease your lips, But they’ll soon fall to the ground And now you won’t feel so in tune with The life you thought you had found.

a different kind
Don't call me on the telephone You already know I won't answer And I'll delete the voicemails To erase any trails That lead right back to me. I don't want to remember, I want forget About the days we've spent Walking and laughing— We'd always fall. But I'm done falling— Falling in love, Falling in your hands, Falling through like sand And not being able to stand. If you give me time I won't have to push you away. I’ll keep your memory in mix-tapes And replay you and rewind you To listen to the melancholy Slowly drifting away from loneliness Knowing that the pain was pretty good, Maybe even better than the laughs and walks And falling in and out of love.

but i'm done falling
Remember when it meant the world to you? When           We were one in a million           And out of 7 billion, you chose me When           Everyone tried to tear us down,           But we’d pack up our things and leave town When           We would stay up late at night           To keep each other warm and wrap each other tight When           We would whisper secrets in our ears           Just tell each other things we already knew When           You’d tell me you loved me           And I would tell you that I loved you too You may have forgotten, but I still remember— I still remember when I thought love was true.

i still remember when love was true
You fell in front of me —Like a leaf from a tree— And gave me love, unconditionally. But now I only feel trapped And I'm trying to break out From within your chest.

i'm trying to break out
You think I've forgotten our love But it's never been burned deeper in my thoughts. I used to be so clouded and only wanted your touch To know that your smile and heart Could revive me everyday and night. I'd fall and rise each morning with only you in mind, Letting each word I spoke describe your eyes And how they captured life despite the pain And the habit they had to cry when I was the one not alright. I know you've cared for so long and loved so unconditionally, Even to the point that only you could be mine. But it's true when they say that all good things come to an end. It's just a matter of keeping the feeling special And cherishing a place for it deep in our heart’s cracks.

Keep the feeling special
I thought my eyes were blind until I saw you, But I've never been blinder Than when I started to live for you— I may love you—but this love is not for two. So I'll send it off to the far side of the moon And maybe hope to one day see the other side. I just hope I'm not swallowed up by the tide Before I can see your starlit eyes.

maybe there is a way to love without the feelings to guide you through— and although it is not ideal, It keeps the demons from within keeping you company instead of a warm body to hold on to you.

without the feelings to guide you
You're breaking my heart— chiseling it away with your tongue. If only it could've been my tongue cause i'm tired of the taste of false hope and love.
