hey,
where did we get ourselves today?
are we making progress, healing ourselves
or still basking in the glow of yesterday?
You're not in love with me anymore, contrary to what you think
I believe you're in love with the girl three years ago
that made your heart soar and sing.
You're in love with what we were,
let's not pretend.
But we're different now
my rings are gone, that girl three years ago is dead.
I'm not so lost, not so broken
not so much leaning on a substance to keep my eyes open.
But that was all you,
you were the glue that fixed me.
You manifested someone new,
and now you're not in love with me.
I'm still her, I guess
just put together, in heels and a pretty dress.
Maybe in time this will all make sense.
Maybe one day we won't be confined
to confusing lines
on an ambiguous url address.
Maybe one day,
we can confess our truths
truth is,
that's all I ever wanted from you.
