I can't help but put your needs
Before my own.
If you want something
You'll get it
And if you need something
You'll already have it
Because I love you.
"Rach, you don't need to"
But I want to.
You deserve to have what you want
And you deserve the feelings that
You feel when I do those things.
You deserve the whole world
And I plan on giving you so much
More than that.

I push you away
But I want you to stay.

The ghosts of our pasts move around us,
laughing and dancing and haunting our hearts.
They are omnipresent, always there.
Yet we choose to ignore them.
...And with good reason.
They only cause tension.
Flashes of memory, that is all they are now.
*We rise above the past.

and if, my love, you need be
to chase thy dream and leave me be
i'll be patient, doing my own chore
as i wait for your knock on my open door

"I miss you though."
Is what you say to me
when I suddenly cross your mind
after all this time.
Weeks.
Months.
Years.
Time passes without parachutes
guarding these seconds.

Little do they tell you
about this thing called distance,
it's like a game of Telephone.
And I believe
that your last two words got lost in translation.
"I miss you though, not enough."
