If I saw him loving someone else,  
Would I still love him?  
I’d say no  
but the truth? It’s hidden deep within.  

I’d tell myself I’m better off,  
That it’s his loss, not mine,  
But my heart would still ache,  
As if I were stuck in time.  

I’d smile and pretend to be fine,  
Act like it doesn’t hurt,  
But inside, a storm would rage,  
As I’d watch him love her  
and feel the weight of every word.  

Would I still love him?  
I can’t lie, I know I would.  
But I’d let him go,  
For the sake of what I should.

ok okay
Lets fall apart together
No more pretending
We can watch the pouring rain
And fall in love again

Stars fell from his eyes each time he glanced into mine.

I wish I could cry
I wish I could escape my fears
But sadly i am ready to die
After all of the abuse over the years
I wish I could end it with tears

we're not together
but you showed me your favorite band

we're not together
but you spilled your deepest darkest secrets that no one knows

we're not together
but you keep a polaroid of me on your nightstand

we're not together
but god
do I wish we were
and I know you do too

I love you though you’re far away,  
or did I misread love’s disarray?  
You’d beat me down, day after day,  
yet my heart still longs for you in a twisted way.

What is this feeling that won’t let go?  
A mix of desire and pain, a tangled woe.  
I pray you’re distant, yet yearn for your embrace,  
a love that’s marred by sorrow, a bittersweet chase.

I want you, yet hate you for the hurt you’ve sown,  
in this conflicted heart, I’m lost and alone.  
Love and loathing dance in a cruel disguise,  
a tormenting truth beneath my tear-filled eyes.
Love
Pain
Uneasy

We
We’ve had promises broken
Words left unspoken

Tears on our cheeks
Lonely weeks

And yet
It still surprised me when you left me.
I want to say
One day it will be too late
But that wouldn’t be true
I cannot imagine
There will be a date
I wouldn’t go running to you
