I thought I was numb, I thought I was completely paralyzed by the thought of you still existing
Your (absence of)touch runs deep beneath my skin, causing my bones to shake and our demons to stir
I feel a sense of contentment fall over me
our love was large, not the greatest, but it was head to toe
as much as I want to forget you and everything you weren't, I cannot get myself to forget our memories and the way you played victim
you were the worst, yet the absolute best person
If I were to see your face, Lord knows I will, I would categorize it as general and tell myself you look familiar
A familiar stranger, that is all
I wonder how long you will live in me
The thing is I never know how to describe what you were; you were not the one who got away, nor were you poison in my veins, no, you were like coming up for fresh air
You were my mystery, my adventure and I was never one to dive into the unknown
