You can still find me in the halls and streets where we fell in love

This place haunts me almost as much as you haunt my dreams

And yet I will never leave

This is home

Just like you once were.

Ocean waves

You were like the ocean
And depending on the season

Your waves would be hot or cold

Did you love me today and crash into me with warmth

Or did you resent me today and crash cold insults into my soul

You were the ocean

And I was the sun

Bonded but never meant to be.

A Love Like That

A love like that?

True love for someone

It doesn't just fade away

It doesn't slowly turn to hate

It sits there at the back of your heart

And all you can do is acknowledge it

And hope it's never front and center again.

Past Truth

Your name still echoes in my mind

And your shadow still lurks around the corner

And no matter how much I wash my hands

I'll never be free of you.

Clock is ticking

Do you ever have that feeling

Where something is lurking in the shadows

And it's not a person

But an event

Like some time soon

Everything around you is just going to

Explode

And there's nothing you can do to stop it

Just wait and watch.

Bury the truth

And I hate you

Not because of all the ways you broke my heart

But because the way it still flutters over you.

Temptation

Go

Go

Go

It's all I keep telling myself to think

But really what I'm thinking is

Do it

Say it

Do anything

Break me again

I dare you.
