I like to escape reality
But Its good to keep a tether
Or else I would just float away
As if I were a feather

I’m a delicate flower
That you do not deserve

but the stars are the ones who convinced me
That forgetting means to let go

Fills them up so they feel whole
Diving deep into their soul
When they leave it evaporates
Replacing love with just hate
