But maybe we ended for a reason...

because you didn't know how to handle my tidal waves of emotion.

But...

I don't want you back, at least, not like that.

I want the 2 a.m. conversations, the comfort that you gave me when I cried, or screamed, or raged, or even just sat there, lost in the toxicity of my mind.

I miss being wrapped in your arms, security that they were.

But most of all...

I.

Miss.

You.
It's 23:20 p.m., and I'm thinking of you.

"She conquered her demons and wore her scars like wings"
Scars are beautiful no matter what they have come from.
I keep myself busy
While thinking of you
I don't rightly know why
But I think I love you
...when I said that I was over you.

I just didn't want to be the one with the broken heart.

But that backfired didn't it?
And now you're the one laughing with another girl, your thoughts far away from me.
If you wanted the sun
I would bring it to you
with burnt hands

Your fears take on a nebulous, unidentifiable form that tightens around your throat and incapacitates you.

There is no calm. No peace. Only the edge of a very strained thread."
Standing on a timeline
Baffled and confused
Where did we go wrong
And what shall we do
