the mourning never stops
one moment they're here
and the next they're not
the sound of it still ringing in our ears
the weight of our loved ones on our shoulders
and in our hearts
funerals for the living
and weddings for the dead
broken memories scattered across the city
waiting to be fetched
bricks that have forgotten their past
faces with no will to laugh
damp from the flow of tears
mothers wishing they were in those coffins instead
now every bit of the air smells of death
and glued to that throne
the grim reaper has yet to take his last breath

heartbreak
a concept so foreign to me
my first love
first kiss, first touch
one moment you're my everything
and the other you're not

you took the life out of me
stripped me to the bone
and i let you
now i lay before you
black and white

there he goes
leaving me with nothing
but the sorrow
that now accompanies our memories
they tell us life moves on
but how long will it take for us to catch up with it?

oh won't you help me out?
i can't make up my mind!
do i want to kiss you
or look at your eyes?
for the rest of our lives.

here i am
crying again
over time that has passed
when i wished i was older
blaming myself
as if time were a person
that i could stop
from leaving me too soon
but what can my tears do now
that the greatest scientists
have not done yet
i can only hope my younger self
is proud

forgive me
for not listening
to what you were saying
i was too busy
drowning
in your autumn eyes

sitting in the dark
you were here
with just enough light in the room
to show me your tear
you were murmuring something
i couldnt hear
but i understood what you meant
even if it was unclear
i tried to hold your hand
you just disappeared
it was this very moment that i feared
i yell
i cry in despair
please let this be a nightmare
because ill die if i lose you
i swear

i pray
the day
i'll look at you
blankly
as you express
your love to me
.

will never come

I want to believe
That it's the night
That's making me think I still love you
When I'm with somebody else
I want to believe
That tomorrow morning
You'll mean nothing to me
And I won't forget that I love somebody else
I want to stop believing
That your poems are about me
And that you still love me
Because now you love somebody else
