staying up past midnight
scrolling through the dim light,
reading, god,
i remember why i loved you,
not just that i did, but why,
you say barely a friend,
go back and read it then

there was so much love
and passion,
my throat gets sore thinking about it,
everytime i read it,
my light becomes less dim,
my lungs expand, heartbeat quickens,
a smile on my face yet tears in my eyes,
i can’t believe
i forgot how in love with you i–
am

i lost myself in the fall
mind frantic,
what was i trying to accomplish exactly?
acting so heroic, knowing no one is perfect,
why did i have such a low limit
why did i care so much
i’m all, “learn and acknowledge then move on” but where was that then?

selfishness results in losing close friends
word of advice,
ride out the times,
make light,
stop trying to extinguish other’s,
there’s no reason for fights,
vibe and have a good time,
word of advice; just live your ******* life
yeah i learned, but where was that then?
i don’t even know where to begin
i’m afraid what you’ll say cause i’m quiet now, but silence gives you space
