Your presence
Is feather-soft
And weightless

I lose myself
To learning
The constellations
Of your mind

With each
Passing second
I can feel
My mood lifting.

l.v.s

You need
To stop
Holding
Onto things
When they're
Dead

You fill
The empty
Space with
What ifs
And
Maybes

But you knew
It was dead
A long
Time ago
You just
Don't
Want to
Admit it

Now you've
Gone and dug
Yourself
A deeper hole
To cry in...

l.v.s

Your tolerance
For me
Has become
Paper-thin

You promised me
Forests and bird song
But now
All I'm left with
Is shredded
Love letters
How did things
Become so wrong?

l.v.s

You've been shaking
Your whole life

Your voice trembling with uncertainty
Your hands trembling from overuse
Your whole body shivering
From cold and emotion

Come here
Come rest
I'll watch
Over you
There's
No need
For fear
Here

l.v.s

Why must we
Be so well behaved?

I've seen
Many sides
Of you,
My darling

I know
You're trying
To have
Self-control
You're trying
But I can tell
You're lying

A quick glance
Tells me all
Your hands
Behind your back
Are now fists
You want more
Than this

Instead, you decide
To be a complete bore

Even having
The nerve
To comment
On the weather

If you want
To remain
All prim and proper
I suggest
You leave
Before I give you
The pleasure
Of pain.

l.v.s

It's been a while now
I don't know
If I remember
The sound
Of your voice
But I know
I'll never forget
How you made
Me feel

I hope you're
Flying high
Nowadays
My sad swallow
With the breeze
In your feathers
And a soft song
Filling the sky

l.v.s

Each and every time
I'm the one to blame

I don't listen
I don't try
I don't care
I never keep promises
With each passing day
I keep pushing you away

This is something
You might
Struggle to understand

But it wasn't
Only me
That lead to
Our demise

l.v.s
