to that leo I accidentally fell in love with;

at the point of every morning

where I'm too tired to think of anything else

you swim into the part of my heart

that doesn't want you to be there anymore.

 

I have cried during too many sunrises,

to justify ever crying for you again,

so I must regretfully quit this business,

and try my luck somewhere else.

 

when I think, or thought, of us together

I think of june the way I thought of june in july

it was and always will be something that

brought me a happiness I didn't deserve.

 

I can almost understand the way how

we will slowly drift apart forever and always

'like empires and old loves'

but rome wasn't rebuilt in a day.
