We became one
Promised to always show up
To always give 100%
We’d both been burned before
But my mind wasn’t clear
I didn’t stick to the script
I didn’t remember all our secrets
The chaos
The madness
The pain
We both shared  
Endured together
I didn’t know I was blind
I didn’t see the signs
I never do
I lost touch
I forgot about myself
I put you first
Wanting to help you grow
The fragments began to swirl  
The tornado came
My reality cycled
I disappeared
I didn’t show up
I never called
I didn’t think loving you
And you loving me
Could ever be real
Maybe it was just my imagination
Wanting to force something
Wanting to feel
