I want my best friend back
sometimes I just want to take a shovel and dig
Dig to see if you are actually there
I want that plot to be empty
I want my heart to love again
I want to live with you
I want you to eat jelly donuts and spill them all over you
I want you to tell me I grabbed the wrong egg

I used to love to count the rings on your fingers
Each came with a story and stayed on your fingers through it all
Your engagement ring was my favorite, star colored band and a diamond so glistening the angels were jealous
Sometimes if I close my eyes and imagine hard enough I can remember your smile reflecting off the pool of diamond
The day the ring left your finger even the angels cried out in pain
The ring ceased to be surrounded by the magic it used to
The band turned to a dull silver and the diamond lost its shine
The ring I used to believe was more beautiful than life itself no longer shines

Your eyes are like sunflowers
They light up the world like the sun on earth
Your petals droop as the other flowers try to reach you but
Fall to the ground instead
Even as they fall around you, you continue to reach for the stars
The stars everyone tells you, you can’t touch
But day after day you stretch and stretch until you can’t reach anymore

Hi
Hi its me
I know we left it on bad terms last time but I promise I've changed
I've been feeding you alright
I even sleep sometimes
How are you?
Are you feeling better than last time?
I care for you now
I promise
No, I'm not lying
I won't hurt you again
I promise
I'm so sorry body

I... hiccup
I... hiccup
I... hiccup
Never mind... hiccup
Every time I try to talk to you I come down with a case of hiccups

Dearest Depression
I was finally happy with myself
Thanks for ruining it

I hear a knock on the door
I look through the window to see you
A cloud of darkness
I didn't invite you in
But you somehow got in
I don't want you here
I don't want days where I don't want to leave the house
I don't want to cry for no reason
