I will not think of you,
at certain moments in songs
but I will remember you with a shutter,
and in times when my wounds still feel fresh
I will not try to forget you
but keep you around for the lessons I learned
in case I need to brush up
on how to feel like I don't matter
because these feelings come in dark times
when all I need is a light,
I once thought your love was a candle
guiding me home with your warm glow
but your love was the blindfold
covering my eyes
stopping me from seeing the obvious,
it was keeping me in the darkness
