But these are just words that diffuse in the air, their soft tone can fit through the walls & their lack of stability can break down a tower made from hope.
I gave them to you and you swallowed them like candy- a temporary satisfaction that tasted like freedom & long nights away.
These were just words that gave birth to a physical form with no soul.
These were just words I convinced myself I said when you recall nothing of the sort and tell me I lied.
Now I remember you're gone,
when you told me my hands belong in my pocket rather than around you.
When a day passed, then the next. When i saw my reflection in your silence. This was me and I know, that I should have stayed after you kissed me goodbye.
