"Steady"

You say I'm unreliable;
But I'm the steadiest thing
You've got.

Yet, tomorrow you'll forget me,
Without a single thought.

"How"

How can you deny
what you once felt,
if what you felt,
you felt so strongly.

How can people change
so dramatically,
and so quickly,
without a single notice.

How can you pretend
you don't know me,
when yesterday,
I was your sky.

"Muddy boots"

They say there's always sunlight
after the rain.
But what about the mud;
the mud that sticks to your boots.

The mud you trail everywhere
even after the rain ends.

"You"

There are many bad things in the world,
but some good things include:

-books
-warm blankets
-hot coffee
-rainy days
-you.

"Tired"

I'm tired of expecting from those
who won't give.
I'm living a life that isn't
worth it to live.

"Reflexes"

As far as I knew;
Loving you was a reflex.
But now it's too much.

"Goodbye"

I felt your tender touches;
So close, so near.
But I couldn't perceive them,
Clothed by fear.

You said it was for the best,
But by god it hurt.
You tried to wash me off your hands
Like I was dirt.

I guessed you had your reasons,
But you didn't have to lie.
Because I knew when you didn't kiss back,
That was our last goodbye.
