Maybe I needed you
In this moment
In this time

Maybe I longed for you
With your words
In this time

Maybe I wanted you
With your touch
In this time

Maybe I’m ok without you
In this day
In this time

It’s too soon
To open our cages
And let us roam
Freely around

Our lessons
Are not yet learned
And we aren’t
Thinking sound

We feel trapped
Instead of safe
And we don’t want
To be homeward bound

Yet if we look
Into the future
Will know too late
When we aren’t found

I want to tear it
All down
And get a
Do over

I want to rage
Against it all
And know
It’s ok

I want to cry
Until I can’t
And feel
New again

I want to be
Still in the moment
And breathe
Again

You fell
Out of love
With me

There
Was no one else
Just us

I wasn’t
Enough
Or too much

We cried
At your choice
We were done

You still text
Years later
Regret?

You should know
I can’t love you
I promised myself
Years ago
To never fall
Into that again

Stupid girl
Stop trying
To be
What you aren’t

Stupid girl
Stop believing
You are
Good enough

Stupid girl
Stop pretending
It matters
That you exist

Stupid girl
Stop wanting
All the things
You’ll never get

I miss you
At the oddest
Times

When the rain starts to fall

When I hear a ***** joke

When the cup of coffee is perfect

When the beer is cold

When the night is lonely

When the day is hard

When my heart hurts

When I realize the emptiness

Your love left
