It's like all the time you were gone I was holding my breath and though I didn't know it at the time, I held it out of hope.
The hope it was all a dream.
That I could grow stronger in the lack of backbone that you were to me, tangled beneath my skin and the blood I bled each day.
I held my breath because you took it away.
My soul deprived of love from you.
My lungs learning to breathe alone.
But I can't breathe without you.
I might die without you.
Deprived without you.
No reason to survive without you.
I live for you, love for you.
Get by each day, week and month for you.
For you.
It's all for you.
I work for you, awaken for you, I'd travel day and night for you.
I am you.
I'm here for you.
I'll support every decision you make for you.
Because I make mine for you too.
And we are one though we look like two.
Maybe one day you'll say you love me too.
Again and again.
And I'll love you again.
I'll love you forever.
I'll be your best friend.
Because you are mine.
I'm forever yours.
And my love for you will never be forced.
It's lasted all this time for you.
Don't ever doubt that my love isn't true.
love longing hopeful wishful depression forever
