I search for you in passing cars
hoping maybe the universe
is fighting for us
harder than you are

Got a little messed up on soft drinks and turns out fighting the instinct to call you is a lot harder than the liquor I mixed.

I stood on the beach
watching the high tide waves mercilessly crashing into the boardwalk.
I wondered how long the wooden polls would sustain such violence.
The waves made me think of you

--- you never did realize what you were capable of ---

I hope you learn.
And I hope it's only after you've lost
every
*******
person you didn't realize you never wanted to lose
until it's too
*******
late.

Good people deserve better than ******* who seek to capture your beauty for a dying week
instead of admiring you
for a lifetime

If you're not careful,
your selfishness will destroy your world
And if you don't believe me,
Just wait until you've stolen every sunflower from its' roots
And suddenly
you're left in a graveyard
full
of all the love you refused
to reciprocate.

I never thought the past five years were pointless,
but I am starting to think I would've saved myself a lot of time
had I known we'd end up like this.
