I'm trying here
I really am
But why does it feel like
I'm out trapped at sea
And instead of helping
You just watch me drown further
Into the darkness of me
And sit back to enjoy my struggle

I am sorry you have to love me
I am sorry you don't get me
I am sorry I don't get myself
Just know I am trying
I am trying my best to make sense of myself

Quiet town dead asleep
You listen for a noise someone up
but only hear the rustle of trees and leaves.
The winds howling at the bright big moon and you stop lay down in the street and breathe.
You thought to yourself if a car came at any moment would you be able to move fast enough.
Somewhere up in that mind is the thought that maybe it doesn't matter if you move fast enough
Maybe it's meant to be maybe it's for the better.

I am swimming in the words I am trying to hold back
scared that you’ll dive away
from the projections of my feelings
and all its intensity
You showed me your smile
and with that you had me
you know you have me
I just don’t know if I have you.

Me vs her
You love her
You like me
You still miss her
Yet you miss me
She's stunning
And I'm okay
I want you more than anything everyday
I don't want to lose you to her
You say I won't
But it's hard to believe
When she won't leave

— The End —
