Forever was real when it left your lips
you meant every breath you let into me
With an open heart and,
an open mind

Do I have faith in time
in the absence of a damaged mind

The thoughts of you keep me up at night
waiting on summer and a shining light

You were the sun
I was the grass
You made me greener
then left me in the dark
I've watched way too much Scandal and Olitz makes me think of you
Kriti Gupta May 2015
Friday's are for dreaming,
Monday's are for reality check's
They never said it would be easy

The best things in life weren't meant to be
They're tough
Painful
And raw

Love can be a fire that you watch burn to ashes
Because you like broken pieces more than he knows
Vicious and unapologetic
Dark and cruel
A light knocking on its door

The fear in every chuckle
The reason for tomorrow
The past hurts and, present is pain
When you first fall, you never stop

You weren't the only disappointment
Everyone around me wanted to tear me down
You weren't the only heartbreaker
My friends did that too
Only they weren't friends
Just like me to you

Yet you can't text
'We're not going to lose it'
'We mean too much to each other'

What a bunch of ******* *******

People hurt
And people break
And there's no one there at the end of the day
Because we're liars
And sinners
Taking pride in heart's breaking and soul's aching

Changing your name on my phone was one of the hardest things I had to do
So how do you fall out of love?
Please tell me your secret
Because replacing the love with hate is not what you deserve
Nor is it something that I could perform

It's rebuilding and filling the spaces now there
It's haunting and hypnotic

The lack of words spoken
Not about romance
Not about tea
No longer wanting me in the way I knew

We were together
While forever apart
And we were strangers connected by broken hearts

I burned with a fever
While you held your degree
Friendship over love and *** over drugs
Loving you seems more than enough

To write you in colours that don't exist
And memories that are paid to fade
Isn't this just another stage of human decay?

It's a combination of the two
Of the loss and the pain
I'm almost out of tears
I'm almost out of rain
I'm coughing up the moments
I'm coughing up the laughs
I'm holding onto fragments
Of a deep and somber past

It's funny the concept of forever
Eternity
A lifetime
Day by day forming the rest of our lives
No longer intertwined
Kriti Gupta Apr 2015
Two years is a long time to fall for someone
In less than two minutes it can be all gone
From strangers we met as the music rolled in
And now I can't write to that song or your face
I can't sing at the top of my lungs like we did by the ocean
Or watch suits by myself cause this bed isn't yours
I'm still yours
You're just not mine
Kriti Gupta Jan 2015
There's sleep in your eyes with your lips on mine
Six bottles of beer and a checkout time
A pizza to share and a sheet of truth
Time stops that I wish that I could rewind
I close my eyes and feel our hands intertwined
I close my mind and see you by my side
Calling me beautiful every day and night
Hips pressed
Tongues stressed
You could break my heart any time

Will you continue to hum till I cry
And stare at you out of the corner of my eye
Before you kiss my tears goodbye
Going to bed without you feels like there's no end in sight
My heart can't take this
Please come back tonight
Distance is our biggest mistake
Why does home have to be so far away
Come back please, a month is far too long to see your face again
