where does love go once it's lost? i think it still lingers behind in the shadows of our hearts and slowly steals our breath. why else do i want to faint every time i see you smile? you told me i was too fragile and i'm trying not to be. i'm trying to be an adult that drinks coffee, pays her own bills, and doesn't cry at words like we should just be friends. my history teacher told me to never make anyone my world. i didn't believe him until the night i almost overdosed. yet still all i know is to kiss you with my mouth full of forevers and smile at you like i'd never been hurt. but you knew i was lying so i just shut up.
