i got pulled over for speeding on my way home tonight and the first thing i thought of was you it reminded me of a couple of years ago and how i was so busy running towards you that i didn’t see that you were trying to stop me. i can’t stop thinking about how we got here why are you in 400 miles away in a cold nebraska town while im still driving home twice a week to sit in the old choir room and rack my mind trying to remember how things used to be you never told me why’d you give up? why didn’t you cling on for dear life until the forces of this universe ripped you from my hands. maybe thats my thing. i always was the poetic one of the two of us. I’m having trouble falling in love again and its taking everything i have not to straight up blame you for it don’t come home I’m still learning to be without you
