When is it too early
To tell him that he’s the love of your life
When is it too early
To talk about the future
When is it too early to wonder if he still loves you
It’s too early
To “think about the future” he says
It’s too early
“Anything could happen between then and now” he says
It’s too early
“I’ve only ever been with you, I don’t know what else is out there” he say
I guess it was too early
I’ve lost the love of my life
I've lost you.

It’s been hard
Trying to figure out who you are
Figuring out where you stand.
Sometimes the ground is unsteady, unstable
Sometimes you fall down
It’s hard when no one is there to help you up
When gravity is pulling you down..
It’s hard to find the force up
But when you find that force, that will to fight..
Nothing can stop you.
“I am a force to be reckoned with” you say
“I am here, I will fight harder” you say
I am here to stay
I am here and I will push forward
I can beat gravity.

How do I function
Why am I this way
I try so hard to love myself
But even though I try hard
I know that I’m not really trying at all
I know that I miss you
I know that I love you
I want you to be mine
I wish I could get into your head
I wish I could see how you feel
I know you tell me
But the problem is I can’t tell if it’s true or not
All I know is that sometimes
I feel like I’m not enough
Like I’ll never be enough
Tell me I’ll be enough
Tell me you love me
Tell me you want to be with me
And if that’s not the case
Tell me to move on
Tell me we can’t be together
Just please tell me how you really feel
You can’t go from talking to me every night
To talking to me once a week
To talking to me once a month
This is killing me
You used to say goodnight
You used to tell me I’m cute
Now I don’t get a goodnight
I don’t get a you’re cute
I don’t know what’s happening
Do you just not have time for me anymore
Or is it that you just don’t want time for me
Was I too much
Did I come off too strong
Did I?
Did I?
