i never stopped that thing -
that thing you told me to never do.
i never stopped going to the lake,
the beautiful red lake that ripples
when rain droplets fall.
i never stopped listening to the
sound of ripping fabric. it reminds me
of me.
i never stopped running home,
my home in-between ***** sheets
and dull blades.

and i don't want to see you,
because you'll tell me to stop.
you'll threaten to leave,
and i won't stop you.
because i'll never stop that thing -
that thing you told me to stop.

She was an abandoned city
Deserted homes, burnt bridges, empty roads—
A jar of ashes, of stories, of memories
A sanctuary for the forgotten ones

I haven't been able to concentrate today.
Everything is out of focus,
except for you.
You are in painstaking clarity.

You are flooding my mind
and I am drowning
Submerged in memories
that play on a loop

We've become entangled
and we enjoyed it
because we only considered the present
and ignored the inevitable future

Now its crashed all around us
I'm struggling to untie the knots
Because I don't want to
Because I'm afraid you'll drift away

But then I remember why I fell for you
Because we have an insane amount of things in common
Because you are fun to talk to
Because we make each other laugh

Thats when I know
that everything will be alright
That I can breathe easy
That we'll always be friends

Hope fades as he wanders through the trees,
rains trickles down from the branches.
The storm has passed and the fog has risen.
Now everything is clear
And nothing is the way it was.
