Be dark but not
too dark.

Be tortured but not
so tortured
that it tortures me.

The thick of it all
is wearing me thin.
I know that you're broken,
but where have you been?

Be everything I want.
Be everything I need.
I love what's in your blood.
I can't stand how much you bleed.

Be dark but not
too dark.
I ain't that much older than you
And you're smarter than me
So
You should understand this
Sudden detachment
And you shouldn't believe me
When I say that
I am sorry
Even though
I truly am.

back at the beginning
stuck reminiscing
unforgiven but still forgiving
still not winning
alive but not living
these circles we run always end at the beginning

i need to stop
setting myself on fire
to keep you warm.
i keep burning for you.

Sad isn’t it
That you still live in my dreams
And when I wake up
You aren’t there

Addiction.
a scary thing really,
if you ask me.
because you never realize
how much you rely on it,
until it is no longer in possession.
and letting go,
feels as if your whole world
is slowly falling apart.
for me,
it’s almost like i lost part of myself
and i will never get it back.
but that’s the thing isn’t it.
because this addiction,
has become a part of me.
and that is why i don’t want to let go.

I break my own heart
Dreaming of the things
Unrealistically
I didn't want you,
I wanted love
and I have realised
that they are not the same thing.

You were a mould
that I poured my insecurities in,
a computer I tried to program.

But you are a sky,
stormy and clear and rainy and warm.

You were so blue when I longed for red.

I didn't want you.
I wanted the thought.
