What happened to us?
We were once so ******* strong
It's time to let go
Elle Frazier Feb 2013
I watch us change like the colors of the leaves on limping branches
We're unraveling like the string on your rolled up sleeve,

Separating.

I feel the crunch in your words each time I step the wrong way,
Leaving the wind to sweep all my breath away.

Our presence together can no longer stray the gloomy skies,
Leaving the crisp air to cool and things to die.

I see us wilt with the fading sun,
Slowly dying off with each passing day.

This is the time when seasons change,
The time when we wrap scarves around our faces
to mask the emotion we're desperately trying to hide,
Creating makeshift walls for what we're avoiding.

The change is inevitable, my dear
It's time to let nature takes its course.

Even if that means we freeze with the rain,

Falling to crack

Barely holding on
Looking for a solution
From the fog you came

It’s cold
I watch hundreds of raindrops
Falling into puddles
What’s playing through my ear buds
And what’s playing through my mind
Come together so delicately
Like the way your fingers connect with mine
Follow me to the places unknown
Keep your hand locked in mine
I promise I won’t let you go
Don’t be afraid to fall like the rain
Because we fall together
The wind took us by surprise
Holding on tight
We have no choice
We fall
The ground slams into us
Causing our hold to stretch
I’m not flexible
I’m known to split
But we don’t let go
We once fit together like Ying and Yang
We were as strong as the raging sea
But look beyond what you feel
And stare at what you see
We freeze
Stretched out and feeling astray
You begin to evaporate
There’s nothing I can do
I’m frozen
A crack forms
Our hold is broke
You fade away before I can say

Don’t be afraid
We’ll fall together again,

Someday

caution.**

this girl's gonna blow,
so duck & cover.
she's on a path of pure destruction so,
protect yourself before anymore harm can be done.
we all know that these types of battles are rarely ever won.
she's afraid.
feeling lonely,
knowing that this is a one way street only.

love - can you tell me what that means?
every human on this planet defines love differently than another.
some think that love is:
-false.
-only exists in fairytales.
-golden & everlasting.
-indescribable.
but regardless of all the many definitions, love is, well love.
once you feel it, you embrace it's every move, feeling, every emotion.
you become love. & once it hits you, you'll know it's real.
you'll be moved my every move that person makes, every single breath they take.
you begin to feel safe, warm & not alone.
you no longer are afraid of anything, you're something completely different. you're: happy.
invincible.
wondrous.
excited.
fearless.
& suddenly, every bad aspect in your life slowly fades away.
love is a powerful thing.
it can make you or it can break you.
it can find you or it can lose you.
it has it's ups & it's downs.
but the empowering feeling never leaves.
love - can you tell me what that means?

You were in my arms once again today,
& I know this may sound cliché -
But I felt alive.
To hear the pattering of your thundering heart,
To see the way your twisted body was intertwined with mine,
For once in a long time,
Everything felt remarkably fine.
I wanted to stop the clock & freeze time,
So I could spare the last few minutes you had left with me,
Only so then maybe you could hear my screaming plea.
*I never want you to be without me.
