Space

by Andromyda

The space in between the seconds Keeps growing smaller As time goes on Until you can’t even feel it anymore But the space between him and I Just gets bigger Until the edges can’t even be seen And we’re both lost in this void Though the space is so big There’s not enough room To fit all the little things The important things So we both just wander aimlessly Through the black Never finding our way back to each other Though I was searching for you But we let the space get too big And when I found the wall I climbed out And I didn’t go back to look for you I found myself High above the wall Looking down at what used to be But I didn’t want to go back Go back to the empty Where all those little important things Didn’t matter to you And you just threw them in the garbage And threw me in the garbage Because those little important things All the weirdness and quirks Were parts of me So I climbed out of the black And picked myself up out of the trash And moved on And I’m not coming back for you Because I found myself And I realized that I’m okay With all the weird and the quirks I’m okay with being me So the space in between the seconds Is going to keep getting smaller And time is going to fly Faster than ever But I’m ready to fly And I’m okay with being me Now you just need to be okay With being without me
