You were the calm before the storm.

In its most innocent form.

But it's raining now and it's not going to end.

My world has turned into a hurricane and you drifted away with the wind.

My mind is flooding with emotions and my heart is drowning from missing you.

You were the calm before the storm, you were a warning sign.
If only I knew....

We were both gamblers,
And darling, we were all in.

Knowing there was a possibility
Of holes left in our hearts
being unable to mend.

I know life always has a way of leaving us broken, but darling, for tonight, let's pretend.

Risking the chance we could be left with nothing, we put in all we had.

But in the end, even though we lost everything, life didn't seem so bad.

We knew what we were getting ourselves into.

All or nothing

It just so happens that this time,
Life chose nothing.

But we still somehow believed that we had gained from something.

We had discovered sides of ourselves that the other brought to light,

And they were worth knowing, even though now, we are simply a lost dream in the night.
From every experience that fails, find something that has made you stronger because of it.

Her thoughts echoed the sound of his name.

Even after he was gone.

Everything she felt, it was all just the same.

Even after he had moved on.

You're the sea I've been swimming in.

And I'm drowning.

The oxygen I've been breathing is too heavy,

And I'm sinking.

I see you struggling to swim beside me, "Help me!"

And I'm screaming.

But instead you chose to push me away.

*And I'm dying.

"Don't let madness corrupt you." A wise man once said, but it is impossible not to be corrupted when you're as dark as insanity itself.

I don't let anyone destroy me.

But for you, I'm afraid, I've made an exception.
