this world is cold,
this world is cruel
he who is not bold
will be labeled the fool.

i’ll never feel another warmth
quite like the one
when you hold me tight
like you’re never going to let go

your words are embedded in my mind.
sometimes they’re happy and nostalgic.
other times, they’re a reminder of the pain you made our love to be.

if our last conversation was the last time we spoke,
we’d be slaves to regret for the rest of time.

all i want in this life is to be free.
to be free of the chains weighing me down.
to be free of the contradictions in my mind.
to be free of the waste that clouds my judgement.
all i want in this life is to be free.

i miss you.
i miss you.
why can’t we be like we used to be?
please come back in my life for real.
come be everything i need you to be.
come and let me save you because no one else can.
i know you miss me. i know you need me.
cave and accept that i am good for you.
don’t be scared,
let what’s meant to happen, happen.

some days you make me smile the brightest.
some days you make me cry the hardest.
some days you make me sleep the soundest.
some days you make me break the fastest.
