You looked at me with sadness the kind I've seen before . it all look so familiar to me but I was never one to be sure . I second guessed every move I made , I was never satisfied . Your body moved a certain way , you made our vines intertwine. I will never forget you , that's a know fact. I'm just sorry I misjudged our balancing act. You see I was in it for the comfort and the security of another , I was in it for the body and the heat it radiated into mine . You asked me why It was always cold in my house , a question you must have worded a hundered different was to make sure I wouldn't lie. I simply looked into his eyes and said " I do it to feel, you see inside of me is this deep black hole he once used to cover , he was buried so deep in my heart , my body was half his , now I'm left to do to another what he did to me " With your eyes full of tears ready to spill at any moment , I made sure to mutter to you "I never said forever " I never said forever because what is time other than a way to navigate your day , if I promised you something I couldn't fulfil i would never be able to stay. I told you not to get attached it was nothing more than company , I looked and you a realised you looked like me when he stood in front of me . I could see the way your heart was breaking from the simple things I said , the truth is something that you wanted but you never knew it was this . You see this bed was never made for two I always stayed in his. So with your eyes flowing the tears of heartbreak and nothing less I'm sure , ill turn and walk away. And whisper into the air and say " don't forget to close the door on your way" .

A balancing act.
You looked at me with sadness the kind I've seen before . it all look so familiar to me but I was never one to be sure . I second guessed every move I made , I was never satisfied .

You see I was in it for the comfort and the security of another , I was in it for the body and the heat it radiated into mine .
