4am
... and all I want is to come home.
I like the rain.
But that doesn't mean I'm in pain,
It keeps me sane
In a way
because I can't blame
my pain
on the rain
taking the sun away.

I see clouds gather,
Thinking that I hate this weather
When the thunder came
I knew that this game I was playing
was unorthodox
Took a few knocks
Cut my dreadlocks
And when the rain finally came

I was dancing.
In the rain
Just dancing.
Dreads are cool. Winter isn't. It was raining yesterday :)
I once thought that I do not need this life
I could die today
I could die tomorrow
And everyone will be alright

I once thought that I could run away
I could run to Boston
I could run to Rome
Because no one cared whether or not I stayed

I once thought that he could not break my heart
He could sleep with her
He could leave today
And not tear my world apart

I once thought that I could not feel pain
I could slit my wrist
I could try to fly
And no blood would escape my veins

I once thought that I was nothing
But I met him
And he makes me feel
Something
One person can make you, but one person could also break you. I hope you find someone who makes you.

Before I met you,
I had not been searching
For my other half
Because I considered myself full
But now you're gone
And I have never felt so empty
